Our partners
"Stolt Sea Farm started development at the Resource Park in 2012, as it gave the ideal conditions to farm high quality sole, in sustainable and environmentally respectful production systems by supplying us with green power and warm ocean water from their Reykjanes power plant. Also, being positioned between two continents makes it possible to introduce production into two large markets with the benefits this gives which makes the Resource Park great place for investment"
