Nutrisco is a leading Chilean company specializing in the development, commercialization, and export of high-quality food products across various categories, including seafood, fruits, vegetables, and innovative health-focused snacks. Founded as the food division of Orizon S.A., Nutrisco has rapidly positioned itself as a key player in the global food industry by leveraging innovation, sustainability, and strategic brand development.

Core Business and Specialization

Nutrisco operates with a strong commitment to offering nutritionally rich and responsibly sourced food. The company focuses on five core areas:

  • Seafood: Sourcing from pristine Chilean waters, Nutrisco offers premium seafood such as Jack Mackerel, Southern King Crab, Cod, and Stone Crab under brands like San José and FiordoSur.
  • Frozen Fruits & Vegetables: Through the Valle Frío brand, the company supplies a wide range of IQF fruits, purées, and frozen vegetables.
  • Innovative Snacks: FLIP is Nutrisco’s proprietary brand of low-oil absorption snacks made from real fruits and vegetables—an innovation that responds to growing consumer demand for healthy snacking.
  • Superfoods: The LiveMore brand offers a curated line of superfoods tailored for wellness-oriented consumers worldwide.
  • Private Label and Representations: Nutrisco provides private label manufacturing and acts as the Chilean representative for several global food brands.

Innovation and Product Development

A hallmark of Nutrisco’s strategy is its emphasis on R&D and health-forward innovation. The FLIP line of snacks, for example, employs unique technology that reduces oil absorption by over 60%, maintaining taste while promoting health.
