Presentations from Cermaq's sustainability seminar

Cermaq's annual sustainability seminar was held on June 3rd in Oslo. The presentations from the seminar are now available.

This year's topic was quality and fish welfare; Do we know enough about what consumers want on their plate - what they like, what they expect - and what they worry about today’s salmon? And how can the aquaculture industry respond to this?
