Aquascot, a Scotland-based seafood processor committed to sustainability, has acquired SHORE: The Scottish Seaweed Co., a seaweed snack company from the same region. The collaboration aims to accelerate growth of SHORE Seaweed and promote healthy snack alternatives. SHORE Seaweed products include seaweed chips in flavors like Sweet Sriracha, Lightly Salted, Peking Duck and Barbecue. In Australia, biotech research company Fremantle Seaweed received an AUD 4 million grant to expand its seaweed farming operations, contributing to eco-friendly solutions for greenhouse gas emissions, potentially encompassing a multisite commercial operation with a focus on various seaweed species and products. Finally, Oregon Seaweed, an aquaculture farm based in Garibaldi, Oregon, is collaborating with HAB Sauce to introduce the world's first seaweed chili crisp. Oregon Seaweed is an investment backed by private equity principal and venture capital company Katapult Ocean.
