januar 26, 2024

In the ever-changing seascape of the fishing industry, Optimar stands at the forefront, steering towards a sustainable future. Recently showcased at Ombordfryst 2024, our Onboard segment takes center stage in addressing the challenges of decreasing fishing quotas and the pressing need for climate action.

 

Maximizing Short-Term Value

Ombordfryst 2024 served as a pivotal forum where experts convened to delve into vital seafood topics. From energy-saving initiatives to maximizing catch utilization, the discussions were crucial, especially in the face of diminishing fishing quotas.

At the heart of this dialogue was Viggo Brevik from Optimar, who presented a compelling perspective on overcoming climate challenges. Collaborating with C Food Norway AS, Viggo shared insights on transforming waste into valuable resources. "What do we do with roe, fish heads, livers, swim bladders? The waste we once just threw away is now good food. We can help you process and deliver it," he emphasized.
