Scotland-based aquaculture technology company Ace Aquatec has strengthened its operations in South America by hiring Constanza Fontaine as its new Sales and Service Manager in Chile.
Fontaine comes with 12 years of experience in aquaculture, including roles at international companies such as ScaleAQ, Badinotti, and Akva Group Chile.
Her appointment is part of Ace Aquatec's efforts to expand its presence in the region, particularly in promoting its award-winning Humane Stunning Universal (HSU®) technology, which is already being utilized by major Chilean salmon producers like AquaChile and Abick.
Fontaine will focus on leveraging her extensive experience and connections to promote Ace Aquatec's innovative products across Central and South America, aiming to meet the growing demand for ethical and sustainable aquaculture practices, the company said in a press release.
"Aquaculture is a vital industry in Chile, and I am excited to further build on and expand Ace Aquatec's profile here," Fontaine said.
"This role offers a rare opportunity to combine my expertise with Ace Aquatec's innovative product portfolio, and commitment to creating a more sustainable, ethical future for fish farming. I'm looking forward to helping the company and its technology break new ground in this region," she added.
"Constanza brings a wealth of experience to Ace Aquatec, including crucial connections and local knowledge, which will help us to further our mission of revolutionising aquaculture technology in Central and South America. We're thrilled to welcome her to the team at an exciting point in time, both for us as a company and the sector more widely," said Tara McGregor-Woodhams, Chief Sales and Marketing Officer at Ace Aquatec.
