For many years, Anova Seafood, founded by Constant Mulder and Willem Huisman, has established itself as a significant company in the seafood industry, focusing on its core capabilities: the international distribution and processing of fresh and chilled seafood, mainly targeted at the European market. Its range includes primarily whitefish such as Cod/Saithe, Lake Victoria Perch, Pangasius, and Catfish.

The Zalmhuys group, known for its rapidly growing operations and high-quality salmon products, distributes worldwide to retail, foodservice, and wholesalers. This acquisition signifies an important step forward in strengthening their position in the sourcing, processing, and sales of seafood products.

Harm ten Napel, CEO of the Zalmhuys group, explains: "Adding Anova's experience and product portfolio to our current business sees a lot of potential and will further strengthen our position in the seafood industry. It will greatly contribute to the philosophy “all your seafood in one place”. With Koen Verburg and Erwin Spook, who have been leading Anova Seafood since 2019, we bring experienced seafood professionals into our group. We are confident in the growth potential that comes from combining our strengths and look forward to a prosperous future together."
