A report on the Galician economy published by the University of Santiago de Compostela acknowledges the substitution effect that has occurred within the Galician mussel canning industry, where local mussels have been replaced by *choritos* (Chilean mussels). In this regard, the article analyzing the fishing sector—authored by Gonzalo Rodríguez, a researcher in Applied Economics at the University of Santiago de Compostela—explains that "while prior to 2007 approximately two-thirds of production went to the processing industry and one-third to the fresh market, that ratio subsequently reversed, completely altering commercial dynamics and forcing the opening of new markets for fresh consumption."

Over six years, Chilean salmon producer Ventisqueros reduced the share of waste sent to landfill from 26 percent to 0.6 percent through its circular economy strategy.
In 2025, Ventisqueros recovered 99.4 percent of the waste generated by its operations, advancing its progress towards eliminating landfill waste by 2026 under its “Zero Waste to Landfill” programme.
During the year, the company generated 30,592 tonnes of waste, of which 30,396 tonnes were recovered, reused or otherwise diverted from disposal. As a result, only 0.6 percent was sent to an authorised landfill – a sharp reduction from 26 percent in 2019 following systematic efforts to expand circular economy practices.
