Schaug-Pettersen is expected to take up his new role in Salmon Evolution on January 1, 2021.

"I am very pleased to include Trond Håkon in the management team of Salmon Evolution," said Berg. "He has a broad background from both the capital markets and the seafood industry, and I am sure that he will add significant value to our company from day one."

"I am excited to join the Salmon Evolution team and I am looking forward to taking part in the development of a leading global salmon player," said Schaug-Pettersen.
