Överumans Fisk Ab has been acquired by Vattudalen Fisk Ab
September 2022 — PRFoods AS has sold Överumans Fisk Ab to Vattudalen Fisk Ab.
Överumans Fisk is the largest most sustainable fish farm (rainbow trout) in Sweden. The company had recently obtained two large-scale (2x1,800t) licenses in a lake in northern Sweden, ready for production ramp up from 2022–2023.Thanks to the unique location (water reservoir of a hydro dam) and existing operations, the license development costs are significantly lower compared to typical new open sea licenses. With the concentrated location of all licenses in the same lake, the operations are expected to be highly efficient, with estimated revenues at full capacity of over US$15 million and an EBITDA margin of approximately 30%. The company’s focus is on eco-friendly sustainable farming – blue impact feed and no use of antibiotics or hormones, while energy needs are largely covered by hydro power.
Vattudalen Fisk is a Swedish fish farming company and is part of Norwegian Egersund Group. The group is a supplier of trawling equipment, aquaculture nets and merchandise to the fishing fleet and aquaculture industry, and is active also in freshwater fish farming in Norway and Sweden.
PRFoods is an Estonian-based vertically integrated fish farming company, producing and selling fish in Estonia, Finland, Sweden and the UK. The company is listed on Tallinn Nasdaq OMX.
