The Trout, Of Course

Our History - Tradition and Research of Excellence

The Sterpo Agricultural Company, in the homonymous village of Sterpo, in Friuli, for over 50 years of activity, today transforms about 15.000 quintals of trout per year - divided between rainbow trout, brown trout and char - in fresh fillets, hamburgers and other delicacies in various specialties.

The village is rich in ancient medieval tradition and is immersed in the great park of the Stella river.

The Company, always attentive to the quality of raw materials, transforms only products of superior quality bred in the waters of the surrounding territory: in pure, cold and oxygen-rich waters. An activity that draws its best from nature without affecting its equilibrium.

Modern technologies, care, experience and constant health checks have led to the development of an important supply specifications in compliance with a strict Quality Plan and the SA8000 directives.

Our Breeding - Quality and Respect of the Territory

The natural environment is an important element of the physiognomy of Sterpo and of our farms. Il Borgo is located at the sources of the river Stella, an area rich in water and close to the resurgence area, springs generated by the snowy and rainfall of the Carnic Alps and the foothills, which sink into the frozen ground to return to the surface thanks to impermeability of the deep layers of the ground further downstream.

Resurgent water is the ideal habitat for many fish species, such as salmonoids, of which trout is the queen.

Certifications and Respect for the Environment

In 2003 the company obtains the ISO 9001 certification and in 2006 the "Friends of the Sea" brand, thanks to a careful environmental policy which respects biodiversity.

He also received the 2007 Interreg prize in Austria for product innovations.
