Stabburet Stabbur-Makrell chopped mackerel in tomato sauce

Stabbur-Makrell is an iconic Norwegian food brand specializing in canned mackerel in tomato sauce. It was originally launched by the company Stabburet, which was founded by Gunnar Nilsen in Fredrikstad, Norway, in 1943. The product became a staple of Northern European diets, known for its high Omega-3 content and distinctive yellow packaging.

Today, the brand is owned by Orkla ASA, a leading industrial conglomerate based in Norway. While Orkla has a vast international presence, the production of Stabbur-Makrell remains deeply rooted in Norway, primarily at their specialized facilities in Fredrikstad. The brand continues to lead the market in the canned fish category in Scandinavia.
