In early 1960s, the Odd Berg Group channeled resources into research and development (R&D) activities related to animal feed based on herring and capelin as raw material. A factory located in central part of Tromsø was acquired in 1964 and renamed Tromsø Fiskeindustri AS –Trofi® in short.
After nearly 30 years within the fish meal and fish oil industry, Trofi® got access to a formulation concept for starter feed targeted to hatcheries in the aquaculture industry.
After optimizing formulations and adjusting existing production line, a range of trial feed based on a specially designed agglomeration technique was launched under the brand AgloNorse®.
Initially planned as a complementary operation for low season in fishery, the Odd Berg Group and Trofi® decided in 2003 to shift the whole production capacity to AgloNorse® starter feed.
