Our Story

We are a pioneering blue growth company located in the Faroe Islands, in California, USA, and in Baja California in Mexico. We offer a collection of seaweed products as well as take part in research projects with a number of different partners.

Our purpose is to improve people’s wellbeing and to make a unique contribution to our blue planet. We use science, innovation and expertise to apply sustainable methods to grow and harvest seaweed and process it into premium quality products for our target customer segments. 

Ocean Rainforest began its open ocean cultivation trials 2010 in the Faroe Islands. Since then we have combined our knowledge of the unique ocean environment with our strong entrepreneurial spirit, to cultivate seaweed in the North Atlantic and the Pacific Ocean.

Our inbuilt focus on research and innovation enabled us to develop world-class cultivation and processing methods, making us a leading seaweed cultivator in the Western Hemisphere, and a pioneer in our industry.

Our multinational team shares the same values of passion, teamwork and pioneering, and through a diverse set of skills and years of combined experience, we continue to explore the potential of this versatile sea plant and meet growing market demand.

We believe we can improve biodiversity in the ocean and on land with our cultivated seaweed based products, and as such have a positive impact on the food production on the planet, and at the same time reduce the emission of harmful greenhouse gases.

Thus or vision is to create a local ocean rainforest around the world - in partnership with local, likeminded collaborators.

We are committed to running a lean and innovative company, with energy and integrity.
