Optimar triples Vikenco’s slaughter capacity on Rindarøya

This expansion will not only ensure world-leading processing capacity but also strengthen Vikenco’s global position in seafood processing.

With tailored systems from Optimar, the slaughter capacity at the facility will increase from 40,000 tons per year to an impressive 120,000 tons per year. This represents a significant boost and reflects the increasing demand for quality products in the seafood market.

– We are very proud to be chosen as the supplier for Vikenco’s expansion of their processing facility on Rindarøy in Aukra, outside Molde. This will be a world-leading processing facility, says Hans Owen Thunem, Vice President Sales Aqua at Optimar.

Dependent on strong partnerships
Optimar delivers tailor-made solutions of the highest quality, and this collaboration is another proof of their commitment to innovative and sustainable solutions for this industry.

– To maintain our position as a world leader in fish processing, we rely on strong partners like Optimar. We achieve both high quality and good fish welfare with the new slaughter lines. This makes us confident that we will reach new heights, explains Jonny Småge, COO at Vikenco.
