About Vilsund Blue A/S
Fishermen have harvested shellfish in the Limfjord for several hundred years. The Danish Crown officially organized this practice as an industry in 1851 and in 1900, the Limfjord Company really put Wind in its sails and laid the Foundation to develop the Limfjord shellfish business as we know it today.
In 1986, Vilsund Muslinge Industri A/S was established, and in 2010 the Limfjord Company and Vilsund merged to form Vilsund Blue A/S, a Danish Company with roots and headquarters in Nykøbing Mors. In 2010, Vilsund Blue A/S was the first mussel producer to have its mussel and oyster production practices MSC certified as sustainable fishing.
The size and power of the vessels are regulated by legislation. Vessels may be no more than 16m long and are limited to an engine power of 300hp. The vessels in the fishery are switching to a new, lighter-weight form of dredge which is more efficient.
