Welcome Values Products Production Contacts Downloads Customer’s Site VALUES FOR A/S LÆSØ FISKEINDUSTRI ABOUT LÆSØ FISKEINDUSTRI It is a processing and export company established in 1963 with strong values and deep roots in the local island community of Læsø. A small group of fishermen, and others, with ties to the island shared a desire to secure a steady outlet for their fish products while at the same time, developing a strong local employment base. Since that time, Læsø Fiskeindustri has grown into one of the world’s leading exporters of the highly prized delicacy, scampi – but in spite of this phenomenal growth, its founding values remain the same: the island, the sea and the fishery. Today A/S Læsø Fiskeindustri can boast, state of the art production facilities and a skilled, experienced work force in three Danish plants and a fully-owned subsidiary in Peterhead on Scotland’s east coast. A/S Læsø Fiskeindustri is owned by a group of over 400 stockholders, all of whom have close ties to the company and its local community. As in the beginning, more than 50 years ago, ownership is primarily in the hands of the fishermen, employees and local Læsø islanders. VISION As one of the world’s leading producers of scampi, A/S Læsø Fiskeindustri’s vision is to spread knowledge and enjoyment of the wonderful seafood dished in the ocean around Læsø and Denmark. Run by a contented, motivated staff with a foundation that is deeply anchored in the island’s history and traditions, we produce accessible, high quality food products and maintain the shortest distance from ocean to consumers in Denmark and the entire world. HISTORY On its 50th anniversary in 2013, A/S Læsø Fiskeindustri could note with satisfaction its position as Europe’s leading exporter of scampi. A position which is maintained with daily shipments to both the domestic and European markets as well as customers in the US and Australia. The company was established in 1963 and has grown markedly as a result of steadily increasing demand. This natural evolution led, in 1998, to the establishment of a Scottish compani, and, in 2003, to the launch of a line of shrimp and surimi products in our own specially developed brine. Both our Scottish and brined products constitute an important part of our business, alongside our Danish production. In 2006, A/S Læsø Fiskeindustri expanded into Skagen, with a purchase of Marius Røntved A/S, at the time one of the country’s oldest fish exporting enterprises. Simultaneous to this restructuring of the company, Læsø Fiskeindustri responded to the recent financial crises and instability in export markets by an aggressice strategy of investment in new technology, including the purchase of automated flash freezing and packaging machinery. This effectivization has, in conjunction with our experienced workforce, created the basis for future innovation and growth at Læsø Fiskeindustri, where our base position remains, also for the coming 50 years, a strong local community, great raw materials and an insistence on the highest quality.
