Fishery for cod, haddock and saithe in the Barents Sea
As a result of Greenland’s international fisheries agreements with Norway and Russia, Greenlandic companies are allotted fishing concessions in the Barents Sea every year. The fishing here is for cod, haddock and saithe in both the Norwegian and Russian zones.
In 2015, the Greenlandic fishery in the Barents Sea achieved MSC certification.
