Processor lines up salmon experts

THE food processor Marel has invited two leading international salmon figures to speak at its 17th Salmon ShowHow processing conference in Copenhagen next month.
Trond Davidsen, president of the International Salmon Farmers Association (IFSA) and Grant Rosewarne, CEO and managing director of New Zealand King Salmon, will address the meeting, to be held on February 7.
Davidsen will share insights into current trends and challenges of salmon farming and his expectations of the future of the industry. He has been president of ISFA for the past six years, and has also been deputy managing director of the Norwegian Seafood Federation since 2014.
Rosewarne (pictured) was appointed CEO of New Zealand King Salmon in 2009 and managing director in 2016 and has focused on lifting its products from a premium commodity to a worldwide branded food delicacy.
Marel, which is headquartered in Iceland, said it will have a wide range of equipment on display on the day.
