Our employees in the marine farming division work in different capacities including supervision and maintenance of marine farms, aquaculture, operation technicians, production of edible fish, quality assurance, HSE, service workers onboard vessels, and administrative tasks.

 

Wild catch/white fish/VAP
In the segment of wild catch and whitefish our subsidiaries Havfisk AS and Lerøy Norway Seafoods AS have considerable activities, primarily in the harvesting and processing of whitefish in Norway. The VAP segment is engaged in prime quality processing of mainly salmon and trout, but also of other species. The products are sold in increasing quantity to a global market.

A number of our employees in wild catch, whitefish and VAP work among others as automaticians, technicians, production coordinators, supervisors, quality assurance managers, HR (Human Resources) staff, fish buyers, warehouse staff, net and refrigeration equipment machinists. 

Onboard Havfisk’s fishing fleets our employees work as fishers, apprentices, machinists, stewards, skippers, trawl casting supervisors and factory managers.

We have a great kitchen at our head office in Bergen where we regularly test new products and the quality of our seafood.
