About Grieg Seafood Finnmark

Finnmark is in the northernmost part of Continental Europe, where Norway swings eastward. In the midst of wild and majestic scenery with steep mountains and icy fjords, the conditions are ideal for growing healthy fish of exceptional quality. Operations in Finnmark were established in 1978 by Norwegian fish-farming pioneer Harald Volden. In 2006 the Volden Group merged with Grieg Seafood and was renamed Grieg Seafood Finnmark. Grieg Seafood Finnmark now includes a smolt hatchery and 24 licensed sites, complete with harvesting and freezing facilities at four clusters in different regions of Western Finnmark. The distance between production clusters forms a natural barrier to the transfer of disease and therefore represents a lower overall biological risk in Finnmark. Grieg Seafood Finnmark owns and operates the northernmost fish farm in the world, close to the North Cape. Our facilities in Finnmark enjoy the shortest export route to Russia in Norwegian fish farming, including the major cities of Moscow and St. Petersburg. Most of our production is exported to the EU, Russia and Asia. The company employs about 200 people.
