BG Prodcution Sp. z.o.o. was established in Poland in 2010 initially providing service processing of Atlantic Salmon to Scandinavian market in Fresh form. Close allocation to Western European Markets allows BG Production constant market expansion, development as well as high level of competitiveness. Our aim is to transfer the production of seafood products aimed for the European markets back to the local markets. From Polish processing facility we are taking a first step towards a leaner supply chain. Closer to the raw material of fresh salmon and closer to the customers.
2010 - beginning of production activity
2011 - production capacity increase, bringing machinery line to highest standard, international food standards certification
2012 - market expansion, establishment of own smokery, installment of additional cod processing line
2013 - building own freezing and storage facilities, buying own transport, development of new products - wide range of both cod and salmon products in both fresh and frozen form
2014 - change of company profile from service processing to 100% ready finished goods sales.
Our management teams are experienced in seafood production.
We employ certified Food technicians and engineers, that are following a continued program for education and learning.
Our policy is to follow and upgrade systems and people continuously. Apart from in house Q.C systems we are accredited with BRC, IFS and Global G.A.P. as well as HACCP food standards on highest degree.
We are currently implementing a “External Inspections Paradigm” where at any stage in the supply chain of raw material, production or finished products, the company Eurofins Global Control Supply Chain can control and report directly and independtantly on any observations. www.eurofins.com
We have BRC and IFS certification, besides internal Quality and Control systems we comply to HACCP and have FDA approval and Australia approval. We have Global G.A.P and are working on other Organic approval processes.
Our criterias for raw material are dominated by the requirements of our end customers. Therefore we are aiming for areas with slow growing fish which is consistent with firm meat texture and better colour. Our second aim is to have fish fed with maritime feeding systems, based on sustainable sources, that gives the salmon a natural taste and smell. Our third aim is to have fish that is given good conditions and circumstances for animal welfare, this includes feeding, clean cages and density of max 15 kg fish per m3. Fourth aim is to have the salmon produced into finished products within a maximum of 72 hours after slaughter.
We work steady with several selected farmers in Northern Norway, who are able to meet our requirements.
In production we employ around 230 staff, producing about 10,000 MT of rawmaterial per year.
Our markets are retail and foodservice companies in Australia, France, UK, Germany, Denmark, Sweden, USA and Japan.
We have a close dialog with our customers on new products that might be interesting for their particular needs. We are continuously scanning the markets for new packaging solutions, new and more sustainable ways of farming our raw material.
We are working closely together with market leaders in the toppings and flavoring industry to develop new flavors or cut to products that can benefit the customers in the market place.
Atlantic salmon from Norway is our raw material base.
Salmo salar has been living in the wild for centuries. Since early 1980’ies it has been the main farmed species, farmed in Norway, Scotland, Ireland and the Faroe Islands.
