Leroy Seafood Group’s new plant in Norway's Hitra region is set to be the most fully automated salmon plant in the world, with the fish going from hatchery to market without touching human hands.

The factory will become the most modern salmon facility in the world, but Leroy has to break mental barriers to make it happen, Frode Arntsen, director of production at Leroy Midt, told IntraFish.

The fourth industrial revolution is underway, and with increased automation, big data, artificial intelligence, smart sensors, cloud solutions and devices that talk together, major changes are in the cards.
