Mainstream changes name to Cermaq

Published Modified

Following the sale of the feed division EWOS, Cermaq is a dedicated farming company. Cermaq will utilise the strengths in one common name, and the local farming companies, which today are named Mainstream, will consequently change names to Cermaq.

- Cermaq is a well-established name, and a common name will strengthen our global operations, says CEO Jon Hindar.

Cermaq is the world’s third largest farmer of salmon and trout, with operations in Norway, Chile and Canada. The farming operations is built on acquisitions and organic growth, and there are many company names from Norway, Chile and Canada which have been a part of Mainstream, and which now till change name to Cermaq.

- With this Cermaq will be a uniform company which can utilise the opportunities from being a dedicated farming company, underlines Jon Hindar.
