Export companies of frozen foods from Denmark
Orskov Foods A/S Export company of frozen foods from Denmark
Once upon a time in 1943..
Our story began in the center of Denmark – in a tiny town named Oure on the island of Fyn. An island rich with fruit-growing traditions. This is where, the Ørskov family started the journey that Orskov Foods is still on.
Our roots are based in the art of growing, processing and selling fruits, berries and associated raw material. Since our founder first rode his horse to market in 1943, selling the fruit of local growers. Up until today, where we are a modern, versatile production and trading company with production in Denmark, Poland and Chile and clients in the international food industry and Danish retail. Still with the Ørskov family in front.
Keeping word and always being open to new initiatives was Niels Ørskov Christensen senior’s way of doing business, when he founded our company. And today, this is still in the core of everything we do:
We strive to be an attractive and credible partner for customers, coworkers and suppliers, so everyone can harvest the fruit of our cooperation.

Danish apples and apple juice
The fruit and juice we sell to Danish retail share a story of marvellous, ripe apples. Grown in the rich Danish soil and in the unstable Danish weather. The weather changing from sun and heat to rain and low temperatures is annoying to some, but the apples enjoy it. It makes them develop slowly. Creating the basis for a completely unique balance between the apples’ taste, color, acidity and sweetness. And the result is a great taste experience.
