Our long history as a seafood nation stems back to the Viking era with fishing, catching and export of seafood. Today, Norway is the worlds largest exporter of seafood, despite being a small country in the north with only 5.5 million people. Norway’s natural resources is the reason for our long-lasting traditions and practices within the seafood industry.
Today, we continue connecting past to present. We are caretakers of historical knowledge and care for our cold clear sea, which provide food and healthy proteins to the world’s population.
The secret of our seafood
Norway has one of the world’s longest coastlines. Our location far north offers cold, clear waters and optimal conditions for fish, shellfish and other seafood species. Seafood thrive in cold water filled with nutrients and is part of the secret behind our claim to have the world’s best seafood.
