Nordic presence in Portugal

C Food Norway

Seafood By-Products (Lisboa / Sines)

C Food Norway is an Ålesund seafood company that has worked since 2013 on turning whitefish by-products — cod bones, heads and trimmings — into food products such as dried swim bladders, salted and de-salted fish meat, cheeks, tongues and migas. It sells through partners in Asia and Europe and has had a Portuguese company since 2014: CF Norway PT, Unipessoal Lda, registered in Lisbon for the manufacture and trade of fresh, frozen and processed fish.

Corridor footprint

C Food Norway describes itself as one of the leading companies in finding value in the unused by-products of whitefish, a niche it has worked in since 2013, and says its value chains are built with trusted partners in Asia and Europe. The Norwegian company, registered in Ålesund in September 2016 with eight employees, is classified in the Brønnøysund register under the freezing and further processing of fish.

Its Portuguese company, CF Norway PT, Unipessoal Lda (NIF 513014950), was incorporated on 2 April 2014 as Global Salmon Portugal and is registered for the manufacture and sale of fresh, frozen and processed fish; the Norwegian parent is also registered with the Portuguese tax authority (NIF 980698316). Several of the by-products it processes — cod cheeks, tongues, swim bladders and migas — are traditional items in the Portuguese bacalhau trade.

Why this matters for the corridor

Portugal is the world’s largest market for Norwegian clipfish, and most coverage of that trade stops at the fillet. C Food Norway’s Lisbon company is a reminder that the same cod also yields a second, smaller trade in by-products that Portuguese cooking has always used, and that Norwegian processors are organising supply chains around it.
