Aquaculture

Though aquaculture has been practiced  in different forms for well over a thousand years, the advent of fish farming as a provider of protein to the world market, has occurred relatively recently, perhaps only in the last forty years or so.

Our parent company, Sunderland Marine,  is now one of the most established providers of insurance, and possibly the longest serving to the aquaculture industry, having issued its first policy in 1986.

As aquaculture has grown and evolved worldwide so has the importance of this class of business to the Company – it currently provides approximately 15% of the Company’s total income.

Underwriting of Aquaculture risks are handled directly by our colleagues in the UK. For contact details and more information about our Aquaculture department please click here for our aquaculture profile
