Yokohama, March 27, 2026: Proximar Seafood AS ("Proximar") today published its
Annual Report for 2025, highlighting a year of continued commercial progress and
operational improvements.
Throughout 2025, Proximar strengthened its role as Japan's first producer of
locally farmed Atlantic salmon and supplied 1,338 tonnes HOG of fresh Fuji
Atlantic Salmon to customers. Strong demand together with solid price
achievement for market sized fish above 3 kg HOG underline the advantages of
proximity, freshness and consistent supply.
The company ended the year with a standing biomass of close to 2,000 tonnes,
improved biological performance and stable operations. This provides a solid
foundation for gradually increasing harvest weights and price achievement from
the second quarter of 2026 onwards. For the full year, the company expects to
harvest 3,500-4,000 tonnes HOG.
"Our progress throughout 2025 reflects the strength and dedication of our team.
We now deliver fresh, locally farmed Atlantic salmon to the Japanese market
every day, and the customer response remains highly encouraging. As the only
producer of Atlantic salmon in Japan, we hold a unique position, and with full
production capacity restored we remain committed to building a sustainable
business that delivers quality and long-term value," said CEO Joachim Nielsen.
