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.
