Fish processing
P / F Varðin Pelagic
The subsidiary P / F Varðin Pelagic was founded in 2011 by P / F Varðin and the fish processing company P / F Delta Seafood . A fish processing plant was built in Tvøroyri and production started in August 2012. In June 2017, a fire ravaged the facility and the entire factory was burned to death. Production came to a standstill. To get the system up and running again, it had to be completely rebuilt from scratch. Shortly after the fire, the board of directors decided to rebuild. The newly built and improved plant resumed production in August 2018, a little over a year after the fire. The new factory is fully automated and equipped with advanced cooling systems and fast freezing technology. After a year of production and adjustments, the system was fully optimized and ran at full capacity.
