About NorthTaste Ltd.
NorthIce is a subsidiary of North Ltd., an enterprise owned by scientists and experts who in recent years have worked at research on cold-active (psychrophilic) enzymes and their industrial applications. The methods of producing NorthTaste are among the results of this research and development that have taken place over the last 15 -20 years. North Ltd. enlisted the support of the New Business Venture Fund, together with several enterprises and individuals, to found NorthIce. North has applied for a patent for the utilisation of cold-active enzymes to produce NorthTaste. According to an agreement between North and NorthIce, the latter has exclusive global rights to exploit the patent. Processing of NorthTaste takes place at Dalbraut 2, Höfn, while the company's office is located at Stórhöfði 15 in Reykjavík. In May 2000, a new share offer by NorthTaste Ltd. was purchased by option holders. North Ltd. and the New Business Venture Fund subsequently agreed to sell the Venture Fund (Framtakssjóður) of the People's Bank Holding Company a 10% share in the company to provide it with a stronger operating base. The company's Board of Directors is comprised of Pálmi Guðmundsson, Chairman, Baldur Hjaltason, Birgir Ómar Haraldsson, Jón Bragi Bjarnason and Úlfar Steindórsson.
