In May, Norway's seafood exports experienced a 6% increase compared to the same period last year, totaling NOK 8.3 billion, with May being the third-best on record. This growth is led by salmon, snow crab, and king crab exports, which have seen significant increases of 6%, 581%, and 193% respectively. Despite challenges, there is cautious optimism for further growth as restaurants reopen and more people eat seafood at home. However, the value of salmon exports was reduced by approximately 10% due to the strengthening Norwegian krone. Other seafood such as trout, fresh cod, clipfish, salted fish, stockfish, herring, mackerel, capelin, prawn, and snow crab also contributed to the overall growth.
