Fumara Foodlab Norwegian Salmon

Fumara is a premium seafood brand specializing in high-quality salmon processing, particularly known for its roots in the Italian 'Food Valley' near Parma. The product shown is Norwegian salmon that is processed and packaged in Italy by Foodlab S.r.l. While the raw material (salmon) originates from Norway, the craftsmanship—including dry salting with sea salt and artisanal processing—takes place at the Foodlab facility in Polesine Zibello, Parma.

Foodlab was founded in 2000 by Gianpaolo Ghilardotti and his brothers, starting as a small artisanal workshop and growing into a significant player in the gourmet smoked fish market. The brand 'Fumara' refers to the characteristic fog of the Po Valley, linking the product to its local Italian territory. The company remains under the ownership of the Ghilardotti family and operates out of its specialized production site in Italy, emphasizing sustainable energy use and traditional methods.
