About the company
Kavli Norway is part of the Kavli Group, a Norwegian food company founded in 1893 when Olav Kavli opened a small cheese shop in Bergen. What began as a local business grew steadily, and in 1924 the company established its first production facility, marking the start of industrial food production.
Over the decades, Kavli Norway has developed into a well-known producer of dairy and food products, combining long traditions with continuous innovation.
