Skretting celebrates million tonne milestone

Skretting teams around the world celebrate this week after reaching the one million tonne mark in salmon feed delivered in 2007.

Calculations indicate that the millionth tonne of Skretting salmon will be produced today.

Knut Nesse, managing director of Business Group Skretting Salmon Feed, said this year's produce would certainly pass one million tonnes of produced and delivered feed as the company continuously builds on its market share.

Skretting companies in Australia, Canada, Chile, Ireland, Norway and the UK are highlighting the occasion with ceremonial deliveries of millionth tonne bags.

Wout Dekker, CEO of Skretting¡¯s parent company Nutreco, said they would continue investments in research and development and bring about innovations.
