More than 40 years of experience

Continuing a proud tradition

The first company was established in 1978 in Vestmanna, Faroe Islands as a cooperative for fishing whole fresh fish, located along the coast of Faroe Islands. 

Under the management of Dánjal i Skálum the company has been active in the selling of fish products and was a success from the start. 

Danjal and his son Bjarni, together with Kenneth have years of experience in the seafood industry, before they ventured into global seafood trading. Their understanding has helped them cultivate their strategic long-term relationships and build their business into a global leader.

TORFOS is a vibrant growing company with long traditions in serving the producers along the coast of the Atlantic countries and with an extensive network of satisfied customers worldwide.
