Fishermen have harvested shellfish in the Limfjord for several hundred years. The Danish Crown officially organized this practice as an industry in 1851 and in 1900, the Limfjord Company really put Wind in its sails and laid the Foundation to develop the Limfjord shellfish business as we know it today.
in 1986, Vilsund Muslinge Industri A/S was established, and in 2010 the Limfjord Company and Vilsund merged to form Vilsund Blue A/S, a Danish Company with roots and headquarters in Nykøbing Mors. In 2010, Vilsund Blue A/S was the first mussel producer to have its mussel and oyster production practices MSC certified as sustainable fishing.
We take great pride in our commitment to quality,sustainability, and responsible fishing practices, and we are dedicated to providing our customers with the highest-quality seafood products.
One of the unique aspects of our company is our commitment to using every single part of the mussel. From the meat to the shells, we believe that every part of the mussel has value and should be used in a responsible way. This approach not only helps reduce waste but also ensures that our products are as sustainable and environmentally friendly as possible.
Our team of experienced professionals is dedicated to delivering the best possible service and ensuring that our customers are completely satisfied with our products.
