From Sea to Table: The Sustainable Cultivation Process

Hand-Selected for Quality

Three Friends Abalone begins their process with the careful selection of naturally spawning brood-stock. Only the healthiest and strongest are chosen to ensure top-quality offspring.

Nurtured with Care

The abalone start their life in a nursery, feeding on algae and gradually growing from larvae into small mollusks. After about six months, they reach a size of around 2cm and are moved to a custom-built aquaculture environment.

Eco-Friendly and Ocean-Inspired

Their growing environment is designed to replicate natural ocean cycles, powered by Tasmania’s renewable energy sources. The abalone are fed a specially formulated cereal-based diet to support optimal growth over the next 2–3 years until they reach market size.

Harvested for the Best

When ready, the abalone are harvested and processed with care to maintain their premium quality. They are then delivered to high-end restaurants and discerning seafood lovers around the world.
