Sustainable production of healthy protein is at the core of Nordic Halibut’s business.
Nordic Halibut will be a sustainable producer contributing to a blue future with product quality and fish welfare as key part of the Company’s ambition to produce 4.500 tonnes HOG within 2026 and 9.000 tonnes HOG within 2030.
GlobalG.A.P Certification
The standard covers the entire production value chain from broodstock and juveniles to farming and harvesting.
GlobalG.A.P. certification demonstrates Nordic Halibut’s commitment and operational focus on sustainable halibut farming. The certification ensures that the production meets all international requirements for food safety, sustainability and welfare for both fish and employees throughout the value chain.
The audit, performed by Kolos Aqua AS, assured Nordic Halibut compliance with strict criterions for food safety, animal health and welfare, environmental sustainability and biodiversity, workers’ well-being, production processes, legal compliance, and traceability.
Nordic Halibut also underwent the GlobalG.A.P. Risk Assessment on Social Practice (GRASP), a part of the certification process applied to assess social risks in primary production and to provide additional transparency to supply chain partners.
