Norwegian Smoked Salmon
Quality is only part of the picture of Norwegian Salmon. We go to great lengths to put tremendous care into farming procedures-making sure salmon supplies remain constant 365 days a year. Therefore the salmon you purchase in December will be of the exact same high quality as the salmon you purchase in May.
Scanfoods products are today exported to a number of countries in Europe, Far East, Middle East and Australia. And now available in North America through our marketing/distribution relationship with Great Northern Products, USA.
Smoked Salmon - (Premium, Presliced, Kosher)
The first smoked salmon were produced in an old Herring-smokehouse built early in the last century. The key to the success for Scanfoods smoked salmon has been the old traditional production method that was used in this old smoke house. These production facilities soon became too small and oldfashionned and today Scanfood has a modern factory at Eidsnes approx. 20 km for Aalesund. Here Scanfood has tried to maintain the same old traditional smoking method that has given such good taste to Scanfoods smoked Salmon.
Nutritional value
In terms of nutritional value, farmed salmon is an excellent product. It contains plenty of omega-3 fatty acids and is rich in the fat-soluble vitamins A and D. It also has a high
content of the water-soluble vitamins B12 and pyridoxine.
Season:
Farmed salmon is sold all year.
Farming Fishery:
Salmon (and trout) farming have developed rapidly in Norway since the breakthrough in the mid-1970s. As a coastal trade and export industry, the salmon industry has had an enormous influence on where
people live and the economy in Norway. In recent years, the industry has provided almost 40 % of the total exports of Norwegian fish products.
