Spot prices for Norwegian salmon are up only slightly compared with last week, as the market remains cautious after the Seafood Expo Global in Brussels.

The market was expecting a larger increase in prices as Ascension Day means there are only four harvesting days next week and therefore there is likely to be less volume available than normal.

Industry players told IntraFish, prices for next week hover around the following levels:

  • Sizes 2-3 kilos -- NOK 50 (€5.40/$6.20) to NOK 52 (€5.60/$6.40) per kilo
  • Sizes 3-4 kilos – NOK 57 (€6.20/$7.10)
