Norway King Crab

Our two plants in Finnmark are ideally located in the two largest areas for catching King Crabs in Norway. Both stations have good facilities with a capacity for storing more than 20 tons of crabs. The cold, crystal clear and pure water in the north gives us an optimal basis for storing crabs in a gentle and optimal way.

The catch areas in Finnmark, Northern Norway, are situated 1800 kilometers north of Oslo and have limited flight capacity, often due to rough weather. This is far away from most markets and demanding transportwise. Because of this, we have built our own “crab hotel” close to Gardermoen, Oslo Airport. The crabs are transported by truck from Finnmark to the tank facility in Oslo, where the crabs are kept for a short time before being sent by air to customers all over the world. The crab hotel makes us able to send live crabs to the whole world – all year round. The transport time from our tank facility to that of the customer is short, which ensures the well-being of the crabs and optimal quality of a live resource.

With a location 30 minutes from Oslo Airport, we have access to all routes with direct or indirect flights to the whole world. With transport by road from Finnmark to the crab hotel, we no longer depend on planes with low capacity from the north. From Oslo Airport we reach all corners of the earth in a short time, which is optimal both economically and when it comes to the well-being of the crabs.
