Through joint ownership of Fjord Marin AS, Fjord Seafood is developing its production of other select marine species including cod, halibut and wolfish. Fjord Seafood’s objective is to establish itself as the leading international supplier of farmed seafood. It has chosen to focus its efforts on the traceability of its product, deeming this to be the most important documentation for assuring the quality and safety of its seafood.
