Nordic Aquaculture has reached an agreement with Denmark-based Sustainable Seafood Invest to acquire controlling interest in two of its kingfish operations, the company said this week. It comes as the land-based fish farm conglomerate prepares to launch bi-coastal operations in the U.S., with a controversial $500-million indoor salmon farm in Belfast that’s pending final approval from planners and another facility in the works for California. Nordic Aquafarms, the only land-based producer of two high-value species, yellowtail kingfish and salmon, is also actively eyeing the Asian fish-farming market.
