Norway's seafood exports reached NOK 42.1 billion in the third quarter, marking a 10 percent increase from last year. Christian Chramer, CEO of the Norwegian Seafood Council, highlighted that strong sales of salmon, trout, cod, and pollack, along with a weak Norwegian krone, fueled this growth. This year, Norway has already exported NOK 124.1 billion worth of seafood, surpassing the total for all of 2021, which was NOK 120.8 billion.
Norway exported NOK 42.1 billion worth of seafood in the third quarter. This is an increase of NOK 3.7 billion, or 10 per cent, compared to last year.
”In terms of value, Norwegian seafood exports are still doing well. Salmon, trout, cod and pollack have had a historically strong third quarter behind them. However, it is still the weak Norwegian krone that is the most important driver of value growth”, says Christian Chramer, CEO of the Norwegian Seafood Council.
