Among the plant’s flagship products there are: flounder, halibut and redfish fillets, fish fingers and also stuffed products. The most important markets are located in Scandinavia, Germany and the UK. Fleming Knudsen, the concern director, claims that the Koszalin-based plant constitutes a very important point in the long-term development strategy of the company.
