Danish feed and food companies are audited to GMP+, FAMI-QS and IFS standards and the Fødevarestyrelsen applies EU spice controls at the border. Importers in Aarhus, Copenhagen, Odense, Vejle and Aalborg work with Kohenoor International because:
Denmark’s agri-food industry is built on pigs, dairy and feed: the country is home to some of Europe’s largest compound-feed cooperatives, premix and feed-additive companies and pet-food manufacturers, and fenugreek is a standard palatability ingredient in piglet creep feed, calf milk replacer, horse muesli and dog food. These buyers purchase regular grade in big bags and require GMP+/FAMI-QS-compatible documentation.
On the food side, spice packers supply curry and Middle Eastern blends to Coop, Salling Group and Rema 1000, and the Turkish, Pakistani, Iraqi and Somali communities of Copenhagen, Aarhus and Odense buy çemen, methi and hulba. Health-food (helsekost) brands and pharmacies sell bukkehornsfrø seed and capsules. Supply arrives mostly via Hamburg and Rotterdam from India; Danish importers who want direct container pricing and a documented second origin are qualifying Pakistan.
