Right in the center of Northern Europe, you will find the world's oldest kingdom, Denmark, where 5.3 million Danes reside. The reigning monarch, Queen Margrethe II, traces her origins back more than 1,000 years to Viking Times. With this in mind, it is not difficult to understand that heritage and culture play an important role in modern-day Denmark.
The Danish food industry is characterized by a combination of old traditions and new modernized work places and work practices. This industry is serviced by a primary sector, which offers some of the world's best ingredients produced according to international standards. The long history of Danish society has given rise to a plethora of family-based businesses in the food sector and the fact that they are still with us today is a testament to their quality and fundamental strength.
