Staff at Arev wrote an article in Vísbendingu about consolidation in the fishing industry. The link to the article is here.
The article includes, amongst other things, a table showing MHHI, HHI, CR3 and CR8 for the 2023/24 fishing year, based on ownership at the end of 2023:
| Type | MHHI values | HHI value | Correct the spelling of CR3% | Create a new task for the third time. |
| Trout value (%) | 706 | 595 | 27,6 | 61,6 |
| redfish/golden redfish | 1.508 | 1.239 | 42,7 | 74,9 |
| Cod | 553 | 497 | 24,6 | 55,9 |
| Pike | 936 | 875 | 33,6 | 71,5 |
| Whiting | 668 | 621 | 21,2 | 60,8 |
| Processed fish species | 1562 | 1418 | 36.6 | 78.1 |
| Without pelagic species. | 672 | 566 | 27.1 | 60.6 |
There is also a table that shows similar information for the food market:
| Association | Sale (MA) | Market share % | HHI value | Correct the spelling of CR3% | Create a new task for the third time. |
| Behaviour | 122.015 | 47% | 2.181 | ||
| Attach | 70.659 | 27% | 731 | ||
| Home shopping | 5.080 | 2% | 4 | ||
| Fjarðarkaup | 4.143 | 2% | 3 | ||
| Costco | 8.728 | 3% | 11 | ||
| Euro & Mini market | 3.313 | 1% | 2 | ||
| Others | 5.241 | 2% | 4 | ||
| Co-operatives | 42.108 | 16% | 260 | ||
| Total | 26.288 | 3.195 | 76% | 98% |
The tables show that there is a significant difference between the concentration in the food market and in fishing quotas.
