Nordic Aquafarms

The Norwegian group includes three subsidiaries:

Fredrikstad Seafood is Norway's first land-based fish processing plant for salmon. Phase 1 is set to be completed by the end of 2018, and will have a production capacity of 1,500 metric tons.

Denmark's Sashimi Royal (62.5-percent owned) produces the species Yellow Kingfish. It has a production capacity of 1,200 metric tons.

Nordic Aquafarms Inc. is the American company in charge of building the massive plant in Maine.

While Atlantic Sapphire is currently stocking its first eggs in its Florida facility, another Norwegian company is in full swing to realize its plans further north.
