Sustainable Seafood from the Ice Cold North
VAAG is a premium supplier of Norwegian seafood. From our little fishery in Henningsvær we offer only the finest quality products, all harvested from above the arctic circle.
Norway's Finest
Henningsvær is know for its incredible nature, fresh produce, charming restaurants and friendly people – it also happens to be Norways best kept fishing community. The crystal clear arctic ocean breeds seafood of superior quality.
Always Frozen
Always Fresh
All VAAG products are flash frozen to lock in the freshness and preserve the exceptional taste and texture.
Quality Guarantee
The quality of fresh seafood begins to decline as soon as it touches fresh air. Flash-freezing preserve the natural taste and texture.
Shelf-Life
Flash frozen products maintain their freshness for up two years which leads to more predicability and less food waste.
Food Safety
The ultra-low temperatures used in flash-freezing effectively kills almost all bacteria.
Less Emissions
Transporting a flash-frozen product by boat, train, etc. produces far less carbon emissions than flying a fresh product across the same distance.
We harvest only in season when the quality is at its best
In our partners we seek out those who are not in the industry simply to make the biggest profit, but those who produce exceptional
quality using methods that preserve the product, the sea, the wildlife, as well as the local communities.
Fish
We work with local fishermen and offer wild catch from Lofoten and Vesterålen, primarily Skrei cod. Our fisherman know where the best fish can be found, how to catch it and how it should be handled. All our fish is prepped, vacuum packed and super frozen same day it comes out the ocean. We never buy endangered species, and fish exclusively in season when the quality is at its best.
Shellfish
Sourced from the pristine waters near Finnmark and Nordland, Norway. It is sustainably harvested, meticulously chosen, cleaned, and prepared by hand. At the final stage its vacuum packed and flash frozen to lock in the incredible fresh taste and texture. Our shellfish is HPP treated with allows us to remove the meat from the bone without damaging the flesh.
Revolutionising Seafood Quality with Innovative Technology
VAAG Seafood is the only company in Scandinavia that uses high pressure processing technology (HPP).
This technology allows us to naturally preserve seafood by using extreme pressure to eliminate harmful bacteria without the need for additives or heat, ensuring a longer shelf life while maintaining the fresh taste and quality of the product. The technology also gives us the opportunity to deliver raw and fully cleaned king crab and langoustine without shells and bones.
The HPP technology is central to our development of premium products and we continue to innovate and explore new opportunities in shellfish processing.
