About us

At the age of 18, Petter Aune left his family
to work as a fisherman in Alaska. Only three years later, he became the fleet’s youngest factory manager.

Since then, Petter has been working all over the world - including USA, Russia and Antarctica. ​In 2009 he bought the site that today is Drågen Smokehouse.

“I was annoyed by all the poor products that are described as high quality smoked salmon. Most of them are mass fabricated, machine smoked on shelves of steel. Some are made in a hurry, without respecting the time it takes to give the fish the right taste and texture.
‍
We take pride in our craftsmanship and use only local, pure and nattural ingredients. Our reward is superior quality.”
