We are proud to announce that Wild Sockeye Salmon won the Podlaska Brand 2025 title in the food product category. The award was presented to Monika Siecińska-Jaworowska, President of the Suempol Management Board.
Podlaska Brand is an initiative in which the regional government, together with residents, selects products and projects that deserve to be recognised. This year’s edition was historic, as it was the first time a product from Bielsk Podlaski won the title. A record number of 322 entries were submitted. Of these, 258 were approved for evaluation, while the jury selected 17 winners in seven categories. The final gala of the 17th edition of the “Podlaska Brand – European Consumerism” competition was held at the Stanisław Moniuszko Podlasie Opera and Philharmonic in Białystok.
Wild Sockeye Salmon is a premium product certified by MSC, confirming that it comes from sustainable fisheries. Key production stages, including smoking, quality control and packaging, are carried out at the Suempol facility in Bielsk Podlaski. The recognised product is distributed by the Suempol Group, a responsible food producer with a strong international presence.
This distinction is especially important to us because the Podlaska Brand competition assesses not only product quality, but also the product’s connection to the region and its residents. For us, this is a source of satisfaction, but above all a motivation for further development.
