Products
COD
Dried salted cod is Jangaard’s main product. Portugal is the major consumer in Europe, with the country’s traditional fish dish – bacalhau – using dried salted cod as its core ingredient. Latin America is also a big market and large quantities of dried salted cod are sold to Brazil before Christmas and Easter. Other big consumers of cod are Venezuela and Mexico.
SAITHE
The main markets for saithe are Brazil, the Dominican Republic, Jamaica, Congo Kinshasa, Congo Brazzaville and Angola. Jangaard has been present in these markets since the 1960s. We supply a product of conformity and dryness suited for tropical climates. We remove the surface salt in order to avoid attracting humidity. The fat content in saithe is less than 1% and protein content is 42%.
HADDOCK / AMBASSADE
Haddock is sold to Spain and Mexico as wet salted. The fish is mainly converted into "migas" in these markets. In countries such as France, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Angola and the Republic of Congo, the fish is sold as dried salted haddock. Haddock is a small and very white fish.
LING
Ling is often sold to Mexico, Brazil, Martinique and Argentina as dried fish. In Brazil, they use Imperial to describe the highest quality and Universal to describe a lower quality. In other markets, Superior denotes the highest quality and Universal a lower quality. Wet salted ling and wet salted ling fillets are sold to markets such as Italy, Greece, France, Australia, Tunisia and Spain.
TUSK
Tusk is sold to Brazil as dried salted fish, and to Italy and Greece as wet salted fillets. The raw material has been salted and then matured over time to create the rich and well-balanced flavour.
OTHER
In order to utilise as much of each fish as possible and reduce waste, Jangaard produces a range of other products resulting from its wet and dried salted fish production. Jangaard is a big producer of roe and liver, as well as different species of frozen fish.
