Abba stands as one of Scandinavia's most iconic seafood brands, specializing in prepared herring (sill) since its inception. The brand is synonymous with Swedish celebrations such as Midsummer, Christmas, and Easter, where marinated herring is a centerpiece. The production is primarily centered in Kungshamn, on the Swedish west coast, maintaining a heritage of seafood processing that dates back over a century.

Originally founded in Norway and later established in Sweden, the 'Abba' name (an acronym for Aktiebolaget Bröderna Ameln) became a household staple. Today, the brand is owned by Orkla, a leading Norwegian industrial conglomerate that acquired the business to expand its portfolio in the Nordic food sector. The brand continues to focus on sustainable fishing and traditional Swedish recipes while operating under the umbrella of one of Northern Europe's largest consumer goods companies.
