- Arctic Fish Holding AS (AFISH.OL) is a Norwegian-listed seafood company primarily engaged in the farming, processing, and sale of Atlantic salmon. The company produces high-quality fresh and frozen salmon products, including whole fish, fillets, portions, and value-added items such as smoked salmon and ready-to-eat preparations; it also offers by-products like salmon oil and meal for animal feed and aquaculture applications. Operations span salmon farming sites in Iceland's Westfjords region, with primary processing facilities in Ísafjörður and sales directed to key markets in Europe, North America, and Asia.
Founded in 2016 and headquartered in Ísafjörður, Iceland, Arctic Fish operates within the global aquaculture industry, targeting wholesale buyers, retailers, and foodservice providers with sustainably farmed premium salmon under its own brand and private labels. The company emphasizes environmental responsibility through low-density farming practices, antibiotic-free production, and adherence to ASC (Aquaculture Stewardship Council) standards. Its business segments include primary production, secondary processing, and international distribution, supported by subsidiaries focused on feed supply and logistics.
In recent developments, Arctic Fish expanded its production capacity through the acquisition of additional farming licenses in Iceland in 2024, boosting annual harvest volumes toward 20,000 tonnes. The company secured a strategic partnership with Mowi ASA in late 2024 for technology sharing in fish health management, enhancing operational efficiency. Additionally, it launched a new line of organic-certified salmon products in early 2025, targeting premium EU markets amid rising demand for certified sustainable seafood.
