GSI officially launches in Trondheim

CEOs of the global salmon farming industry officially launched the Global Salmon Initiative (GSI) in Trondheim this morning, as reported by IntraFishearlier this week.

The 15 members, representing 70 percent of the global salmon industry, are aiming to address issues ranging from biosecurity, feed security and transparency, Alf-Helge Aarskog, CEO of Marine Harvest, told international media at a press conference.

"This will really make a change for the better," he said. "If we can get it right this can also be transferred to other species."
