The CFO: ‘When there’s profit, we’ll be ready’ – Norcod’s finance chief on being a pre-profit company in uncharted waters
Nordcod, listed on Euronext Growth and the Oslo Stock Exchange, is seeking to do with cod what the seafood industry has already done with salmon: turn it into a year-round, accessible food source. There are challenges, ranging from the biology of the Atlantic cod to the growing media scrutiny that surrounds seafood and fishing. Still, Stian Vollan-Hansen, the Norwegian firm’s CFO, believes that Norcod can make cod farming work – for the company and its investors, for the customer and, crucially, for the fish and their surrounding environment.
