A COMMITTED TEAM

Best People.

Our name

Our company name comes from Nordic mythology where Andhrímnir is the chef of Valhalla, the residence of the powerful god, Odin. Andhrimnir carves the delicious meat from Sæhrímnir – the sacred pig that after being eaten comes back to life again to become the delicacy each night. The meat is consumed by Viking warriors who return from the battlefield hungry, celebrating Andhrímnir’s culinary expertise and Sæhrímnir’s generous provision of nutritional sustenance.
Like the mythological figure, Andhrimnir, we at Andrimner seek to add value to the pork production chain to produce high quality and healthy pork.
