Kaltroco Ltd. has successfully completed the acquisition of shares from SINTEF Venture IV and other shareholders, as well as equity issuance, in order to fund the development of CFEED.

“We are very excited to have such a strong investor on board”, said Tore M. Remman, CEO of CFEED. “This investment will help us significantly expand our presence in the global market”.

The goal of this transaction is to significantly increase CFEED’s revenue, production, and global expansion in the coming years. Following the equity issuance, CFEED plans to execute its five-year growth plan, which includes increasing production capacity and further developing its technology, as well as constructing a new modern factory.

“CFEED produces high-quality feed that is easy to store, transport, and handle, and is produced in a fully closed and circular system with minimal environmental impact”, added Cornou Rykaart, CFO of Kaltroco.

“We are pleased to partner with Tore and his team to scale production and address some of the key nutritional and health challenges facing the aquaculture industry today, in order to sustainably breed healthier fish and create a higher quality end product”, he continued.
