Troutlodge announces new General Manager

We are excited to announce that Joe McElwee will be joining Troutlodge – Hendrix Genetics as our new General Manager. Joe brings with him extensive experience in the aquaculture industry, along with a fresh perspective that we are confident will contribute significantly to our ongoing success.

Joe has been involved in fish farming since the mid-1980s, with a diverse background that spans several species, including Trout, Salmon, Halibut, Turbot, Cod, Arctic Charr, and Branzino (European Seabass). Over the years, he has worked in various countries and farming systems, including RAS (Recirculating Aquaculture Systems), Flow-through, and Offshore Marine cage sites. Joe has played a key role in managing start-up farms from egg to market, implementing new technologies, and turning around underperforming operations into successful ventures.

Joe will officially begin his journey with us on November 25th, during his first visit to Troutlodge. He is eager to work closely with the team and leverage the strength of Hendrix Genetics to achieve our shared goals and further strengthen our position in the industry.

Please join us in welcoming Joe McElwee to the Troutlodge family!
