Green licenses and sustainable aquaculture
Today, the company has 5 licenses, 4 of these being green. The green stamp has the strictest requirements for the environement and fish welfare, where the goal is to minimize the foot print of our food production. The last license, an educational license in collaboration with Troms Fylkeskommune, has resulted in Blåfondet, a fund raised in order to invest in teaching initatives regarding the blue sector.
