Norwegian salmon company Mowi opened its first processing plant in Thailand on 28 January 2026. The facility is a partnership with CP Axtra, part of Thailand’s CP Group.
Under the deal, Mowi will supply salmon products to Makro and Lotus outlets. Supplies will also go to Thailand’s foodservice sector.
The partners said product development will include fillets and portion cuts for B2B customers. They also plan ready-to-eat sashimi in modified atmosphere packaging.
Norway exported 25,000 tonnes of salmon and 8,400 tonnes of trout to Thailand in 2025, valued at NOK 2.8 billion. The Norwegian Seafood Council said Thailand was Norway’s second-largest salmonid market in Asia after China.
