January 18, 2023 — The U.S. Department of Justice has dropped its investigation of Mowi’s involvement in alleged price-fixing in Norway’s farmed Atlantic salmon market, according to the Bergen, Norway-based company.
“Mowi has been informed by the Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice in the U.S.A. that they have no longer an open investigation into Mowi,” the company said in a 18 January statement. “Mowi has all along been adamant that the price collusion allegations have clearly lacked merit and are entirely unsubstantiated.”
