Gilde Ostegrill sausage

Gilde is Norway's leading brand for meat and meat products, deeply rooted in the country's agricultural history. The 'Ostegrill' is a specifically popular variety of 'pølse' (sausage) filled with Norwegian cheese, designed for grilling or pan-frying. The packaging prominently features the 'Nyt Norge' seal, which guarantees that the raw materials are Norwegian and the product was processed and packaged in Norway.

The brand is owned by Nortura SA, a massive agricultural cooperative owned by approximately 17,000 Norwegian farmers. Because it is a cooperative, the profits are returned to the farmers who provide the livestock, ensuring that the brand maintains a strong connection to Norwegian rural production and food safety standards. The brand originated in 1964 and remains a staple of Norwegian food culture.
