Boco Seafoods, a company run by Kangamiut Seafood in Dronninglund, bought 203 tonnes of cod in 2023 at an estimated value of DKK 6.9 million. Kangamiut Seafood CEO Rasmus Grønborg Bak says Boco Seafood is liquidated, as are Russian suppliers. However, trade data shows that both Kangamiut Seafood and another subsidiary, DanSea Nordic A/S, last bought Russian fish in 2023. “On the one hand, the EU clearly exempts basic food products, including fish, from Russian suppliers from sanctions, partly due to food safety concerns. On the other hand, as a company, we do not want to support the Russian economy, so we have reduced the number of Russian suppliers to a few,” writes the CEO, who declined to be interviewed.
