- High industrial activity – the seafood economy is currently valued at 85 billion NOK, with potential to reach 185 billion by 2040

Regional Market & Activity
Kristiansund is positioned at the center of one of Norway’s most active aquaculture and maritime service corridors. Vessel density around Smøla, Hitra, Frøya and Nordmøre shows a region in constant motion – short distances, high activity and strong operational volumes.
For companies operating in the blue industries, this means:
- Kristiansund acts as the key connector between aquaculture, offshore and maritime services
- Vessel traffic is concentrated within a radius that enables rapid response and efficient operations
- The region’s geography enables short operational distances and predictable logistics
- Most service vessels, ROV operations and suppliers in Mid-Norway operate within the same corridor
- This creates opportunities for scaling, specialization and continuous workflow
Kristiansund is not just a location – it is a functional hub in one of Norway’s most active maritime regions.
