Cooke Chile has cancelled its contract with Norwegian aquaculture equipment supplier Akva to supply a land-based salmon hatchery in Chile as coronavirus takes a heavy toll on the sector.
Akva reported strong full-year financial year results as it doubled order intakes and signed significant contracts in 2019.
This comes as Akva's order intake surpassed the NOK 4 billion (€355 million/$388 million) mark, almost double the intake the company reported in 2018.
