“Seafood exports from Norway have had a historically strong year behind them. This comes at a time of conflict in Ukraine, soaring energy prices, skyrocketing inflation and weakening global purchasing power. The result of difficult and turbulent times is a sharp rise in prices, which last year led to record high prices for important species such as salmon, cod, mackerel, trout, saithe and herring,” Christian Kramer, CEO of the Norwegian Seafood Council. The export record was achieved despite lower export volumes for some species such as salmon, herring, mackerel, cod, king crab and snow crab. There were many important developments in Norwegian seafood exports in 2022. For the first time, Norway exported over NOK 10 billion worth of seafood in each of the twelve months of the year. In addition, salmon exports have exceeded NOK 100 billion.
