Oslo could become the trade center of the farmed fish industry if plans from Marine Harvest to be listed on the capital’s stock exchange next year go ahead.
Norwegian Newspaper Aftenposten reports that the listing is planned to be complete in the first half of 2006.
Marine Harvest is the world's largest produce of farmed fish and has a 20 per cent market share in farmed salmon. The company's annual turnover is around USD 1.05 billion and employs about 6,000 in production units around the world.
Marine Harvest is currently owned by Dutch Nutreco.
