| Farstad Leaving Marine Harvest |
Thomas Farstad, acting ceo and director of group operations for
Canada, Scotland and Others at Marine Harvest ASA, Oslo, Norway,
has decided to leave Marine Harvest later this year and join Aker
Seafoods ASA as ceo.
Farstad has been working with Marine Harvest since 2003. He has
been part of the management team of the former Fjord Seafood (now
integrated in the group) and Marine Harvest. During his career
with the company, he has been vital in turning around Fjord
Seafood and has successfully managed improvement programs in
several operating units, including Fjord Seafood Norway and
Marine Harvest's operations in Canada, Scotland and Ireland.
"We are grateful for Farstad's important contributions to Marine
Harvest during these years," says Chairman Ole-Eirik Lerøy. "He
has delivered strong results and a willingness to take on
increased responsibility and challenges. We wish him the best of
luck when he takes up his new position in Aker Seafoods."
Farstad will continue as acting ceo until July 19th when the new
ceo, Alf-Helge Aarskog takes up his position. Aarskog was
appointed CEO March 30, 2009, and joins Marine Harvest from the
same position at Lerøy Seafood Group.
