By pooling and integrating resources, the company has established an effective sales organization that focuses on efficiency and economies of scale.
Seaborn’s owners produce salmon, trout and cod. They represent the whole value chain from broodstock and roe via the hatching process, fry and smolt to fully grown fish of the finest quality. The sale of whitefish, both farmed and wild-caught, also forms an important part of the business.
