BFG

In the autumn of 1998, AS Fiskevegn started developing automatic longline machines, and the need to separate it as its own company quickly became apparent. Therefore, a new company called Best Fishing Gear AS, or simply BFG, was founded in February 1999.

Our story

The company that would later become Fiskevegn was established in Barmen in 1968. AS Fiskevegn was founded on January 10th 1973 at Vederhus in Selje municipality. In 1982, the company moved to its current location in Flatraket, with the open waters of Stadhavet right on our doorstep. Many of our employees have extensive experience from working on board fishing vessels, both inland and abroad. This practical experience and knowledge remain an important part of who we are and how we develop our products and solutions.
