Nueva Pescanova CEO lays out strategy for rebuilding the Spanish giant

During the first nine months of his tenure, Ignacio Gonzalez, CEO at Spanish seafood giant Nueva Pescanova, has focused on drafting the strategic plan for the renewed company.

Now, reducing the company's €1.2 billion ($1.3 billion) debt is at the top of Nueva Pescanova's agenda, Gonzalez told IntraFish in his first major interview with international press.

Nueva Pescanova is the result of a bailout of Pescanova by creditor banks Sabadell, Abanca, Bankia, BBVA, CaixaBank, Banco Popular y UBI Banca -- known as the G-7 -- in a deal closed Sept.
