Hofseth

Hofseth A purpose-driven and fully integrated seafood company, offering a wide range of quality products.

The story of Hofseth started in an rebuilt dairy plant in 2005, and 15 years later we are one of the largest salmon and trout processors in Europe with an annual production of 60,000 tons. In everything we do, we focus on our three main strategies that has been with us from the start:

Local value creation
We believe that the value creation from Norway’s fish farming should go to the local communi

ties close to the source. Utilize the whole fish
In order to have a truly sustainable business model, we utilize the fish waste and turn it into high value marine nutrition products. Low environmental impact
In our whole value chain, from farming to freight of the finished product, we focus on reducing the environmental impact.

We were honored to welcome His Royal Highness Crown Prince Haakon Magnus and delegation to learn more about Norwegian seafood production.

The Crown Prince showed strong interest in Hofseth’s strategic investment in closed containment systems at sea,a key part of our ambition for scalable and sustainable salmon production.

The visit comes ahead of the Crown Prince’s upcoming trip to Japan, where Norwegian seafood will be promoted.

Chair of the Norwegian Seafood Council, Olav Holst Dyrnes, incoming CEO of Hofseth, welcomed the delegation. Jannicke Farstad, Head of Communication and Public Relations, together with Project Director Ole Nordal, presented our ongoing initiatives to further strengthen sustainable seafood production.

In collaboration with Prophylaxia and Norsk Edelfisk, we shared insights from several years of testing, forming the foundation for Hofseth’s large-scale deployment of closed containment systems.

This marks an important step forward in shaping the future of aquaculture.

Havliljen er sjøsatt

Dette markerer en viktig milepæl i utviklingen av den nedsenkbare merden som senere i år skal installeres på Vindsnes, en av våre fem oppdrettslokaliteter. Mange har vært involvert for å få dette til. Dyktige fagfolk, lokale leverandører, samarbeidspartnere og egne ansatte har lagt ned en solid innsats, fra planlegging og utvikling til bygging og sjøsetting.

Dette er lokal verdiskaping i praksis. Når vi jobber sammen på tvers av selskaper og lokale krefter, får vi til store ting.

Takk til alle som har bidratt. Nå starter neste fase.

Sharing our experience with submerged aquaculture

Submerged farming technology is on the agenda at a local aquaculture industry gathering hosted by the Næringsforeninga. This technology is becoming an increasingly important part of the future of Norwegian aquaculture.

Over the past year, we have gained good experience from farming salmon and trout in submerged pens. Our VP Farming, Didrik Vartdal, will share key learnings and our perspective on the way forward.

Innovation and knowledge-sharing remain central to building a sustainable and resilient aquaculture industry🐟

Our mission in Davos

IceFresh gently thaws seafood just before it reaches the customer, ensuring exceptional freshness and texture.

To enable this, the seafood is frozen immediately after Harvest, locking in quality at its peak.

By shipping seafood frozen by sea instead of by air, Hofseth significantly reduces emissions, delivering premium seafood in a more sustainable way.
