South Australian Shark Cartilage
South Australian Shark Cartilage is proudly Australian owned. A family run company that started from humble beginnings, the company processes and distributes the product all within Australia. Yvonne and Jeff Dale run the entire business from Port Lincoln in South Australia.
All Raw Shark Cartilage purchased by South Australian Shark Cartilage is sourced from existing commercial Shark fishing only, which is harvested primarily for human consumption (Flake or Shark).
Sharks are not targeted for the production of shark cartilage products. Shark cartilage is collected as a natural by-product of sharks harvested for food. Before the benefits of shark cartilage were widely known the cartilage was largely disposed of as a waste product.
