Ecolabels are designed to help consumers make more informed choices about the sustainability of products. One well-known eco-certification in aquaculture is the Aquaculture Stewardship Council (ASC) certification. This article examines the relationship between the ASC ecolabel and the export price of farmed salmon products from Chile to the United States. The findings indicate that ASC-certified products command higher prices, suggesting that companies with ASC certification generate more revenue from sales than those without it. Moreover, the price premium for ASC-certified salmon is even more significant for high-quality cuts, such as fresh salmon fillets.
