Nolan takes on wider processing role at Mowi

Mowi has appointed Scott Nolan to the newly created position of Operations Director, Processing and Sales (UK and Ireland).

Nolan (pictured) is currently Processing Director for Mowi Scotland Ltd. In his new position, he will report jointly to Ben Hadfield (COO Farming, Scotland, Ireland & the Faroes) and Andreas Soraa (MD, RMT).

Mowi said the new role is intended to ensure the company achieves the highest level of operational efficiency through coordination across the business unit, leveraging synergies from Mowi’s integrated value chain.

Nolan rejoined Mowi just over two years ago. He said: “I am very excited to take on this new role, with focus on further integration of our processing and sales divisions. I will continue to work closely with our processing teams, and look forward to further engagement with our dedicated teams in sales and their valued customers.

“It is also an exciting time to be leading our sales group during a period of growth and with more and more Mowi salmon products being sold in new markets to organic and Aquaculture Stewardship Council certified standards.”

Nolan will continue to lead on the redevelopment of the company’s Blar Mhor salmon processing site to build capacity to more than 80,000 tonnes. The Blar Mhor expansion will use state-of-the-art robotic technology for handling and grading salmon and, Mowi said, much of the work will be undertaken without closure of the facility.
