A weak dry cargo market has hurt results at Norwegian shipping and seafood company Grieg Group.

It recorded an overall loss of NOK 456m ($55.8m) in 2015, which is reduced to NOK 48m when tax and one off items are extracted.

Wenche Kjolas, chief executive of parent company Grieg Maturitas, says the group is seeing more positive signs in the figures and future.
