Golden Gate Brine Shrimps

This new undertaking is not unexpected and has been in development for several years.  With 100% of Golden Gates production now relocated to thousands of acres of specially constructed ponds in coastal Shandong, there are assurances of a major stable supply for Golden Gate of frozen products over the long term.  Golden Gate with its predecessors has been in the forefront of developing Artemia brine shrimp harvesting for over 50 years. Golden Gate's original forerunner was the first to develop live and frozen products from San Francisco Bay, California and elsewhere. Through many decades Golden Gate products have always been of highest quality. With the new developments contributing to the aquaculture of Artemia brine shrimp, Golden Gate will have an ever-increasing role in providing the best in frozen foods for the aquarium trade and aquaculture, particularly for Europe.

Major operations managed by other competing suppliers of live and frozen brine shrimp use solar evaporation salt ponds that are designed for making salt and regularly dried and scraped, which is not  a natural environment. No nutrients can be put in these ponds because they would contaminate the salt making. Thus, brine shrimp production in solar salt ponds is secondary and limited, lacking in nutrients needed for natural nutritional value. The salinities used for salt making are not compatible with optimum conditions for growing brine shrimp. In order to make the claim that there are omega-3 acids in those Artemia harvested from solar salt ponds, the Artemia have to be force fed immediately before freezing so the nutrients are in their guts, without allowing time for the omega-3 to be naturally digested in their bodies. Much of this omega-3 is excreted before the Artemia are completely frozen. Therefore, the claims for those brine shrimp containing omega-3 are limited at best.

The Golden Gate aquaculture venture has been unique in having established large-scale ponds over which it has control of water quality, salinity, and use of nutrients for growing Artemia. The Golden Gate Artemia are fed natural foods and are particularly high in natural organic omega-3 fatty acids and related high nutrient proteins and fats.

GOLDEN GATE ARTEMIA ARE NATURALLY BETTER:

GoldenGate is now relocating and greatly expanding its operation to thousands of acres of specially constructed shrimp ponds in northern China, that are under U.S. citizen management of the production and processing, and other U.S. quality control standards.Using the technology and species of brine shrimp developed and utilized in California, as well as a closely related species, Golden Gate can assure a continued and improved supply of cultured Artemia brine shrimp from coastal Shandong in northern China, another natural home-region for Artemia brine shrimp.

Kordon Golden Gate? of Novalek, Inc. has been the foremost producer of cultured Artemia brine shrimp in the world for the past nine years. During this time, Golden Gate has been growing and harvesting Artemia in a specially developed 1000 acre (= 400 hectares) pond system in California, U.S.A.
