Winston Score History

The full picture

Sildarvinnslan Hf. is an Icelandic fishing and fish processing company. It catches and processes marine species — primarily herring and capelin — and sells fish meal, fish oil, and frozen fish to customers in agriculture, aquaculture, and food industries around the world. It is one of Iceland's largest fishing companies and operates within the broader North Atlantic fisheries sector.

The company earns revenue by selling processed fish products, with fish meal and fish oil being key outputs used as animal feed ingredients, particularly in salmon farming. It operates mainly in Icelandic waters and exports heavily to European and Asian markets. Its competitive position depends on access to fishing quotas set by Icelandic authorities, which limits competition but also caps how much the company can catch. The main risk the business faces is fluctuating fish stock levels and quota changes, which can directly reduce how much it is allowed to harvest each year.
