Grupeixe is a Portuguese cod industry founded in 1993. Throughout its history, using the most modern techniques, whilst always maintaining the knowledge and centuries-old processes of traditional drying, Grupeixe has sought recognition for the quality of its products and not for mass production, offering its clients a cod of excellence.
Working essentially with raw material from the North Atlantic and Norway, Grupeixe has grown steadily and has become a reference in the production of dried salted cod.
In June 2019, the company, Vinnslustöðin hf (VSV), acquired Grupeixe, thus assuming absolute control of the entire production chain, from the fishing of the cod in the Icelandic seas to the end of its production. This was the first and, to date, the only investment by an Icelandic fishing company in the acquisition of an industrial facility in Portugal.
Today, Grupeixe is the Portuguese company which holds the largest quantity of Icelandic cod and the only one with the capacity to implement improvements in all stages of the production process, in order to guarantee the traceability and quality of our cod like nobody else.
