Spanish fish and seafood processor Fandicosta is well into the extension works of its processing plant, which it expects to finish by mid-September, and a month into the reconstruction of its cold storage facility.

In total, it is investing €10 million ($11.6 million) in the construction works, which were delayed by six or seven months for administrative reasons. However, construction is now well underway. In addition, it will spend another €10.3 million in equipment. 

“The fire was a tragedy, but we were lucky that we’ve been for a long time in this sector and our facilities were insured,” Angel Martinez, CEO and president of the group, told IntraFish.
