Fresh from the waters of Norway, Norwegian salmon is versatile while complementing flavors and spices from all corners of the world and is a favorite for sushi and sashimi due to its clean taste and texture. The possibilities are truly endless when it comes to Norwegian salmon…and that’s where you come in!

ABOUT SEAFOOD FROM NORWAY
Norway sets the global standard for seafood as a result of its meticulous aquaculture and sustainability efforts. The unique geography and cold, clear waters of Norway set the country apart when it comes to providing the highest quality, most flavorful seafood and their variety of offerings—including salmon, trout, cod and halibut—provide a delicious way to add nutrition, variety and flavor to your menu so you can feel good about what you are serving. Norway is the second largest exporter of seafood in the world, sharing sustainable wild-caught and ocean-farmed seafood with more than 150 countries. Norway supplies half of the world’s ocean-farmed salmon and 2020 marks its 50th anniversary of sustainable salmon farming. Origin matters and when it comes to salmon, Norwegian salmon is truly fjord-to-fork.
