Title LIGHTHOUSE CALEDONIA ASA PROCESSING DEVELOPMENTS IN THE WESTERN ISLES
Text


Lighthouse Caledonia ASA has announced that it will reopen its Marybank
processing facility in Stornoway, Isle of Lewis, Scotland, in June 2010. Around
90 jobs will be created to process the summer harvest of salmon from the
company's Loch Roag site in the Outer Hebrides.

Marybank  will  be  one  of  only  few  factories  in the world that can produce
'pre-rigor,  pin bone out' fillets which  offer optimum freshness and will bring
added value to the product in the strong Scottish salmon market.

Jim Mullins, Chairman of Lighthouse Caledonia, said:

"The  market for Scottish salmon is particularly strong this year, so this is an
ideal  time for us to provide an added  value product. The company has made huge
steps forward in terms of sustainability and strengthening the business over the
past year and reopening Marybank marks another important milestone."

 Lighthouse  Caledonia  is  the  largest  independent salmon farmer in Scotland,
producing approximately 20% of Scottish salmon.
