The big NASF debrief: salmon shifts, geopolitics and tech hype

Tue, 10 Mar 2026 11:24:32 GMT

Just days after news broke of Israeli and US strikes on Iran, the North Atlantic Seafood Forum opened in a cloud of geopolitical uncertainty. In this episode, we break down the mood on the ground in Bergen and what the industry is worrying about most.

We dive into the challenges facing salmon producers, from price pressure and trade barriers to regulatory constraints, and explore where companies see growth, including new product formats and expanding markets. We also unpack what the “new” Grieg Seafood looks like after major asset sales to Cermaq, and discuss developments in Chilean salmon and coho production.

Beyond salmon, we look at the outlook for land-based aquaculture heading into 2026 and what farmed cod producers revealed about the sector’s progress. In whitefish, tight quotas and soaring prices are forcing the industry to innovate, with emerging species like King Tilapia offering potential alternatives.

Finally, we explore the technologies generating the most excitement on the conference floor—from autonomous systems to smarter use of data—and examine the state of novel feed ingredients and why scaling them remains a challenge.

Dodging missiles and selling crab: Just another day running a seafood company in wartime

Fri, 19 Apr 2024 16:34:15 GMT

Before you complain about your workday, listen to this episode. We first spoke with Nitesh Pal, the CEO of Polar Seafood Ukraine, just days after Russia began its incursion into the country in 2022. Pal, like so many other Ukrainians, had his life and business turned upside down by the attack. He went from living what he called the life of his dreams to a nightmare.

Since that time, Pal and his company have gone through unimaginable changes. But remarkably enough, it's still supplying seafood, and Ukrainians are still happily eating it.

We are expecting way too much from seafood eco-labels

Mon, 01 Apr 2024 23:19:00 GMT

Seafood eco-labels have been a lot of things over the years: a must-have ticket to certain customers, a shield against NGO attacks, and to some, an expensive burden.

Now, exposes in India and China have called into question just how thorough the auditing process is for companies carrying certification, and if those labels are enough assurance.

While sustainable seafood expert Andrew Mallison of Fishthink says certification has played one of the most important roles in making fisheries and aquaculture supply chains better, businesses and consumers are often confused on just what those eco-labels are telling them.
