Nutrisco is the food division of Empresas Copec, one of South America’s largest and most diversified industrial groups. With a legacy in seafood dating back to the 1950s, Nutrisco, through its business unit Smart Nutrition, is committed to delivering high-quality, sustainably sourced omega-3 ingredients from the nutrient-rich waters of southern Chile.
We specialize in small pelagic species naturally rich in EPA and DHA—like jack mackerel, mackerel, sardine, and anchovy—and we oversee the entire value chain: from sourcing with dedicated fleets, to state-of-the-art processing and global distribution. This vertical integration allows us to ensure full traceability, consistent product quality, and a reliable, year-round supply of food-grade fish oil.
Sustainability is at the core of our business model. We work closely with coastal communities and apply responsible fishing practices that respect marine ecosystems and comply with regulatory frameworks. Our operations are guided by environmental stewardship, long-term thinking, and a strong commitment to advanced technology and innovation.
At Nutrisco, we believe that our work goes beyond producing ingredients. It is about nurturing health, honoring nature, and building lasting relationships with the people and communities that make it possible. Every step we take is driven by the desire to create a positive impact—for individuals, for ecosystems, and for future generations. Together, we are shaping a healthier planet and a better food system for all.
