The company was criticized in 2011 by the Royal House of Norway for using the word "Royal" in a company name. CEO of Norway Royal Salmon said that when the company was founded in 1992, he got verbal permission to use "Royal" in the company name, as long as "Royal" wasn't the first part of the name. Communications manager Marianne Hagen at the Royal House could not find anything in the archives to support this claim.[4]
Green Warriors of Norway reported subsidiary NRS Finnmark to the police after the escape of 3 570 farmed salmon from a facility in Kufjord in Alta. Farmed salmon is a direct threat to the wild salmon in the Alta river system.[5]
Accidents
- On 3 July 2012, a fishing vessel owned by Norway Royal Salmon sank outside of Store Kufjorden in Finnmark. A mother and daughter was killed.[6][7]
