NOFI

What NOFI does

NOFI AS is a Norwegian maritime industrial group headquartered in Kvaløya (Tromsø), Norway, operating through five wholly-owned subsidiaries that serve the aquaculture, fisheries, oil and gas, and marine infrastructure sectors. The company was founded in 1978 and employs between 101 and 250 people across locations in Kvaløya, Tromsø, Kvalsund (Hammerfest), and Egersund. Its subsidiaries are NOFI Tromsø AS (aquaculture equipment and floating marine infrastructure), NOFI Oppdrettservice (aquaculture service station completed in 2021 in Kvalsund at ~100M NOK investment), AllMaritim AS (oil spill response technology), Egersund NOFI (fishing gear service and repair), and NOFI Butikken AS (workwear and safety equipment retail). In May 2026, NOFI established a new joint venture, Egersund NOFI AS, with Egersund Herøy to consolidate fishery services in Northern Norway. Note: firmographics data lists domicile as Kaloyanovo, Bulgaria, but all primary sources (Norwegian organization number 921 444 052, .no domain, Norwegian address, NOK reporting, Norwegian-language operations) confirm Norway as the operating domicile.

The group's product portfolio centers on engineered equipment designed for cold, harsh Arctic maritime conditions. Core offerings include patented oil boom technology for oil and chemical spill containment (AllMaritim), aquaculture equipment such as the NOFI Ventemerd waiting pen system for salmon slaughterhouses (developed during COVID-19), 100% maintenance-free PE plastic floating piers and bridges, water and sewage tank solutions, technical fabric tarpaulins, and trawl gear service and production for the fishing industry. AllMaritim's proprietary oil spill response technology holds multiple patents and was extended internationally through a 2021 strategic alliance with Spain's Markleen.

NOFI operates as a B2B sales-led group with revenue derived from three streams: physical product sales through its subsidiaries, service and maintenance contracts (anchored by the Kvalsund service station in Finnmark), and e-commerce through online stores (nettbutikker) operated by AllMaritim (launched May 2026) and NOFI Butikken. Customers include Norwegian aquaculture operators, commercial fishing operators, and international oil and gas sector buyers served through AllMaritim. Distribution combines direct enterprise sales with online storefronts, and the company maintains an active website, social media presence (Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, YouTube), and an English-translated corporate site. NOFI has aligned its sustainability positioning with three UN Sustainable Development Goals focused on sustainable marine harvesting, reduced product environmental impact, and oil spill response effectiveness.
