Posted on Jan 13, 2012

“We have to work together to ensure the high quality of our product. The quality of our final product can be led back throughout the processing chain.” says Dubbele Janson, Quality Controller at NorthSeafood. That’s the reason why NorthSeafood had a meeting with a fishing company called The Plaice Group. The Plaice Group is fishing company with several ships which has a contract with NorthSeafood for plaice size number four.

The meeting is an initiative of NorthSeafood and aims to improve the quality of the fish and ensure efficiency. Together with the fisherman solutions and innovations are created. For example: placing of sensors within the fish that are monitoring the temperature throughout the whole process in order to ensure the optimal temperature during processing.

During the meeting, Janson explained the influence of hygiene and weather conditions on board of the ships. “Ultimately we have a common goal and that’s to provide the costumer with a high quality product”, concludes Janson.
