Mowi, Scotland’s largest aquaculture company, has announced its purchase of Sanda Island in Argyll and Bute off the southern tip of the Kintyre peninsula. The company plans to establish a salmon farm off the east coast of the island as well as reinvigorate the island and develop its potential as a tourism destination.
