Prime Foods NZ said in a statement: “This move will bring major benefits to New Zealand through increased salmon exports as well as being able to offer all markets a wider range of innovative, quality products.”

BGB will process and export salmon and smoked salmon products but is planning to expand its range further in the future to other smoked fish products, marinated salmon products and ready to eat ranges such a gravalax, soups, pates and sauces.
