Sustainability & Quality

Quality at Every Step

Quality, food safety, and traceability are fundamental to everything we do. Through our own production facilities and certified partners, we strive to deliver products that meet the requirements of professional customers and international markets.

In-house production At our facilities in Bergen and Kongsvinger, we process Norwegian salmon in accordance with recognized standards for quality, food safety, and traceability.
Global Network For some of our seafood products, we work with select producers in Asia who meet our standards for quality, documentation, and traceability.

By-products and co-products

We make use of the entire salmon and offer both main products and by-products.

The main by-product is salmon heads. They are frozen immediately after processing, while still fresh, to preserve quality.

We also supply backbones, belly strips, trimmings, and other co-products for various applications.

Aquaculture Stewardship Council

Marine Stewardship Council

Responsibility Throughout the Entire Value Chain

First Seafood works continuously to comply with the Transparency Act, with the goal of promoting respect for human rights and decent working conditions within our own operations and throughout our supply chain.

As part of this effort, we conduct due diligence assessments of our own operations, suppliers, and business partners. This work is intended to help identify, prevent, and address actual and potential negative impacts on people and working conditions.
