Simonsen Vogt Wiig's Aquaculture and Fisheries Practice

The fishery and aquaculture industry is Norway's next largest creator of wealth after the petroleum industry. With large departments along the coast, we are a well-established advisor to both the marine and shore-based sectors of the industry.

Our fishery and aquaculture group has a varied client portfolio from listed companies to small family-owned firms and locally owned undertakings. We assist with establishment and ownership, purchase and sale of assets and the products that the industry sells, plus regulatory matters and contact with the authorities.
