Welcome to the Islands of Træna

The Modolv Sjøset companies are located in Træna, an archipelago of 418 islands and skerries some 50 km off the north-west coast of Norway. The Arctic Circle runs through the Træna archipelago. The country’s oldest fishing community is here, as some 9000 years ago here, where the land bears the marks of the end of the Ice Age, the first habitants found shelter on land and sustenance from the sea.

They chose well. The clear, bountiful sea teemed with fish, and as archaeological explorations of old caves and settlements now show, they lived agreeably for their time. Today, the heritage from their time is the background for a tradition of skills tied to the sea, the weather and the unique catches.

For more than 50 years, the Modolv Sjøset companies have processed catches that the sea offers. Consistent high catch quality has been preserved through continuous evolution of processing technologies. From our new, spacious facilities, we aim to further the tradition through the leading capability of supplying prominent products world-wide.

From our offices we have a superb view of the seas that prodive the basis of our operations. Our vision is to strengthen our position as a key actor in the food industry as well as continue to be a reliable, local cornerstore company. Træna aims for continued growth and creation of value for the rest of the country.
