People:
At the end of 2008 there were 774 people employed in the EWOS group.

Organisation:
EWOS group is comprised of five operating companies: EWOS Norway; EWOS Chile; EWOS Scotland; EWOS Canada and EWOS Innovation. EWOS central is the administration that links together these five companies, forming a group.

In addition to its traditional 'm-form' organisation, EWOS operates with a matrix overlay structure which means that the operating companies collaborate in functional areas through long established multi-national teams, known as the ‘functional teams’.  These teams cover areas such as: sourcing and purchasing; formulation; products and marketing; quality management; logistics and production.

Internal business development and new business exploration activities are coordinated centrally.

Facilities:
EWOS has production facilities and well established market shares in all four major salmon producing regions. Operations in each region are run as independent companies led by a local managing director.

EWOS Norway has three factories (Floro, Halsa and Bergneset), EWOS Chile, EWOS Canada and EWOS Scotland operate with one factory each.
