Honningcentralen is the honey brand of the Norwegian beekeepers' cooperative, based in Kløfta about 20 minutes outside Oslo. Honningcentralen SA was established in 1927 and is owned by small and large beekeepers from all over Norway, who deliver most of their honey to it. The cooperative sells honey to grocery retail, food service and industry, and also supplies equipment to beekeepers.
The range includes Norsk Honning, the flagship blend on the market since 1927, Sommerhonning, Norsk Blomsterhonning and Norsk Lynghonning from heather moors. Norwegian honey carries the NYT NORGE mark; besides it, the cooperative sources special honey varieties and maple syrup from other parts of the world.
Why this matters to you: The NYT NORGE mark on a Honningcentralen jar separates Norwegian honey from the varieties the cooperative brings in from abroad.
