Quality & Traceability

Our Quality Commitment

Every shipment we handle is backed by a commitment to product quality, full documentation, and cold-chain integrity. We work only with approved Norwegian producers and ensure that each order meets the standards required by the destination market.

Certifications, catch areas, production details, and documentation are confirmed for each individual order and supplier. We do not make blanket certification claims that apply to all products or all suppliers.

OUR STANDARDS

How We Ensure Quality

Approved Suppliers Only

We source exclusively from Norwegian producers that are registered with Mattilsynet (the Norwegian Food Safety Authority) and hold the required export approvals for their target markets.

Full Traceability

Every shipment is traceable from the catch or harvest site through processing, packing, and cold-chain transport to the final buyer. Catch certificates and health certificates are provided for each consignment.

Complete Documentation

We prepare and coordinate all required export documents: health certificates, catch certificates, EUR.1 movement certificates, certificates of origin, packing lists, and commercial invoices.

Proper Packing & Labelling

Products are packed and labelled according to the requirements of the destination country. We confirm packaging specifications — including box weights, ice ratios, and label languages — before each order is confirmed.

Cold-Chain Integrity

Fresh products are shipped at 0–4 °C and frozen products at −18 °C or below. We work with freight partners who maintain continuous cold-chain monitoring from loading to delivery.

Country-of-Origin Compliance

All products we supply originate from Norway and are exported under Norwegian health certificates. We do not re-export or blend products from other origins.

Confirmed Specifications

Product specifications — including size grades, fat content, freshness parameters, and packaging format — are confirmed in writing before each order is placed with the producer.

Responsible Sourcing

We prioritise producers who operate under Norwegian aquaculture regulations, which include strict environmental, animal welfare, and feed standards. Wild-caught species are sourced from regulated Norwegian fisheries.
