Our quality control checkpoints
From the sea
Our fishing and production processes take place on highly modern trawlers and vessels. Immediately after the catch, the seafood is processed, packed and frozen to -21°C. It is then stored on board the fishing vessels until discharge.
At the plant
In all our plants, we have implemented a Quality Control programme with specific microbiology and cleaning tests, performed by the in-house QC staff. The QC programme includes supervising the thawing of fish, checking the quality of the raw material, and supervising production and loading. We only work with plants that are EU and HACCP approved and certified by one or more of the following: MSC, BRC and IFS.
Lab testing
All seafood products are also tested by our local QC staff in an external laboratory, both before and after processing. This ensures that our own quality and microbiology standards are strictly adhered to.
Service and delivery
When the tests are completed and results have been approved by the laboratory, the products are ready to be shipped. Our in-house logistics team takes over and ensures that all the required documents are issued for the customer. Transports are followed closely by our logistics team until they arrive safely at their destination.
