Part I - Know whyStrong points for organic sourcing in Denmark4 5

Heritage Denmark characterized by a long and proud tradition in foodsOrganic exports on asolid foundationTraditional Danish products suchas bacon and LURPAK butter areknown all over the world. For generationsthey have been part of the Danish identityalong with Hans Christian Andersen, the little mermaidand LEGO ® .Danish agriculture has always focused on foreignmarkets, and today we export twice as many foodproducts as are sold on the home market.It is therefore in keeping with tradition that Danishfood producers now supplement the selection ofDanish products on the export markets with a wideorganic portfolio. In 2002, Danish organic exportsamounted to around DKK 300m (EUR 40.4m) withan upward trend.Denmark in the leadAfter a slow start in the 1930s when there were onlyabout 100 biodynamic farms in Denmark, growth inorganic farming accelerated in the 1980s.A similar development took place in most otherWestern European countries, but in few countriesdid organics grow as fast and with such vigour asin Denmark.One of the milestones was the first act on organicfarming passed by the Danish parliament in 1987.As evidence of international recognition the EuropeanCommission chose Denmark as the host forthe 2001 European Organic Food and FarmingConference.European top-fiveSince modern organic farming developed abouttwenty years ago, Denmark has been among thefour or five leading countries in Europe in this field.Today, 3,800 farms in Denmark are certified fororganic production. They farm a total of 180,000hectares, which is 7 per cent of all Danish farmland.The increase in the number of organic farmers isreflected in the professional advisory service ofDanish agriculture. Today, organic farmers all overthe country have access to expertise to assist themin expanding their production.6 7

Integrated strategyOrganic exports based on co-ordinated and proactive strategiesConsensus on strategy fororganic exportsThere is general agreement among all politicalparties in Denmark to support organic productionin interaction between the public and the privatesectors.A good example of this interaction is the exportstrategy for organic products which the DanishMinister for Food, Agriculture and Fisheries, MsMariann Fischer Boel, approved in November 2002.The Minister commissioned this strategy fromthe Organic Food Council, whose members aredrawn from industry, agriculture and consumerorganisations.Clear-cut division of responsibilitiesThe Danish export strategy is based on a clear-cutdivision of responsibilities among industry, tradeorganisations and the authorities.The individual company is responsible for propellingits own exports through innovation, productdevelopment and professional marketing.The organisations are responsible for studying andanalysing potential markets and for co-ordinatingjoint campaigns, for instance in connection withinternational trade fairs.The authorities must pave the way for the recognitionof the Danish state control system to facilitateaccess to export markets for Danish organic products.The Danish Minister for Food, Agriculture andFisheries, Ms Mariann Fischer Boel:“Organics is an important aspect of Danish agricultureand food production. In co-operation withthe organic organisations we are pulling out all thestops to boost sales on the export markets.”November 20028 9

Small dairy of high reputeIn a village in northern Jutland lies Thise Mejeri, a small dairy - an example of a Danish organicand innovative food company. Thise Mejeri is known all over Denmark and far beyond itsborders for its wide selection of organic products, constant product development and focus onquality. Lately, the dairy has become known for developing organic cheeses and milk based onraw milk from Jersey cows. Cheeses made from Jersey milk have a more Mediterranean tastethan is usual for ordinary Danish hard cheeses.Mogens Poulsen, Sales managerInnovation Support and urge for continuous innovationInnovation the Danish wayDenmark has a century-long tradition for R&Din agriculture and food production, often in closecollaboration between the public and the privatesectors. Today, this tradition is reflected in smallas well as large companies which are focusingon organic production when developing newquality, health, high animal welfare and environmentalsustainability.In order to further stimulate the flow of newDanish organic products, Organic Denmark ® givesan annual award to new products of outstandinggastronomic quality.The development work being done by agriculturalproducts, thereby meeting the demands of and industrial businesses is supported by publicthe modern consumer as regards new tastes, research institutions that favour organic production.The Act on InnovationTo support the development of new products, theDanish parliament passed the Act on Innovationconcerning product development in small andmedium-sized food companies in May 2001. Theobjective of the act is to enhance and contribute tothe innovation process in the food, agricultural andthe fishery sectors in order to ensure nutritious andhigh-quality food products.“There are three reasons why wekeep on developing new products.The first reason is that our raisond’être for being in the market isalways changing. The second reason is that we geta kick out of developing new products. And thirdly,our production plant is designed to handle productdevelopment with many small simultaneous productionsincluding technical possibilities which allowfor swift shifts in production.”10 11

InternationalexposureGlobal presence and trade experience onseveral continentsDanes at home in New York, Berlin,Tokyo and…With annual organic exports amounting to over EUR40m, it is self-evident that Danes are experiencedbusiness people on the international arena, andare used to meeting market demands whether thelanguage on the local market be English, Germanor Japanese.Denmark’s international experience in organics isfurther amplified by the fact that a major part ofDanish organic exports is undertaken by large,well-established companies, e.g. Danish Crown,the meat concern, or Arla Foods, the dairy giant,which both have sales organisations coveringseveral continents.Increasing penetration by jointexport promotionsDanish exporters are always ready to identify andexploit new possibilities abroad. Organic Denmark ®Bread from Denmark to JapanBread from Europe is a rare sight in Japan. But since 1997 the Swedish-Danishcompany Cerealia Unibake has been exporting organic bread rolls to a Japanese chainof family restaurants. Originally, Cerealia Unibake made 80-gram bread rolls. However,the Japanese wanted bread rolls weighing only 38-40 grams, and, of course, Cerealiacomplied.

Variety and scopeA broad range of competitive high-quality productsTailor-made muesliA/S Crispy Food International is another example of acompany with a flexible production; in this case it is muesli.You have a number of options: Crispy’s label, private label,ingredients, for instance for Top Cups ® for yoghurt – or youcan specify your particular muesli mix.“We like to tailor-make the muesli by adapting the quantitiesof oats, nuts, fruits, etc. to match the customer requirements,”says Mads Quistgaard, managing director.Crispy are experts in roasted varieties but are also able tosupply other kinds, both in conventional and organic varieties.Whatever your heart desiresWhether you are shopping for bulk goods forfurther processing, pre-packed products with theproducer’s or your own private label, or perhapsspeciality goods for the discriminating customer,you will be able to find a wide range of high-qualityorganic products in Denmark.It is obvious that you can buy large quantities ofbutter, yoghurt and other dairy products from theSwedish-Danish Arla Foods, the most importantprocessor of organic dairy products. It is equallyobvious that Friland A/S, a Danish Crown company,can supply even the largest customers with organicham, bacon, steaks and other cuts.However, did you know that you can buy organicfeta with herbs or chilli as well as a number of otherunique products from Løgismose Dairy on Funen,the native island of Hans Christian Andersen?Or organic apricot & carrot jam or strawberry &rhubarb jam from Svansø Food A/S?14 15

This was in 1987. At the same time companies are paid a scheduled visit by a statethe organic label, the red Ø symbol, was launched. inspector. In addition to these visits, each year theThe label enjoys widespread credibility and is inspectors make unannounced visits. The purposeof the inspections is to ascertain whether allregulations are being complied with and to ensurethat only products produced in compliance with theregulations are sold as organic, be it for the homeor the export markets.Danish regulations with a EuropeanbackgroundThe Danish regulations are based on the regulationsof the European Union (Council Regulation EECNo 2092/91 of 24 June 1991). This is one of thereasons why Danish organic products can be soldall over the world with the EU organic label.Based on the pan-European set of regulationsDanish products can also carry the national organiclabel of other countries, for instance in Germanywhere Danish organic products can be labelledwith the German state label Bio-Siegel.International top evaluationAt the beginning of 2002, the private internationalcertification organisation IOAS – an affiliate of IFOAM,the international organisation for organics, evaluatedthe Danish control system. Their conclusionwas that the control system is of top quality and isbacked by an expert and committed staff.Among other things, the IOAS declared that theDanish cross-checking system is a strong tool inpreventing fraud.With the IOAS evaluation as a platform, the Danishauthorities have intensified their dialogue with anumber of private control organisations all over theworld in order to pave the way for increased mutualrecognition of regulations and control.

Small chocolates – big taste“Life is too short for poor-qualitychocolate.” That is Woodshade Organics’motto. Woodshade Organicsis an example of a Danish companywhere organic principles and demandson eating quality go hand inQuality More important than everQuality – alwaysDanish companies have long since acknowledgedthe fact that organic products must live up to atleast the same high quality standards as the bestconventional products as regards appearance,taste and other traditional quality parameters.Often Danish organic manufacturers even set newstandards for the quality level on the demandingconsumer market.High intangible qualityOne of the most important quality parameters fororganic products is that consumers acknowledgethe basic organic principles such as health, animalwelfare and environmental sustainability.hand in perfect harmony.Tasting a piece of Woodshade confectionarywill convince any scepticthat the motto is not empty words butan expression of true devotion to great taste.The jury of the international Slow Food Foundationwas also easily convinced and awardedWoodshade Organics the “Golden Snail” in 1998,1999 and 2000 for outstanding quality.It is therefore reassuring that Danishorganic farmers and companies aswell as their organisations are constantlydeveloping their productionaccording to these principles.As an example, mention can be made of the factthat the Danish organic community is working onan international level to keep organic productionfree of genetically modified organisms. At nationallevel, an action plan has been set up to keep GMOsout of the fodder for organic livestock.18 19

Spin-offDomestic market activities inspire and boost international effortsFavourable conditions for organicgrowth in DenmarkWith a market share of about 5 per cent of thetotal sale of food products, Denmark is the mostimportant country for organic sales in the world.The best-selling product, milk, has a nationalmarket share of about 25 per cent of total salesin its category. In some parts of Copenhagen asmany as eight out of every ten litres of milk soldare organic.Pooled efforts fuelled by tradelocomotivesThe success of organic products on the Danishmarket is largely the result of all the importantplayers on the market having contributed to thedevelopment. On the political scene there is generalconsensus that organic production must bestrengthened, and leading companies such as ArlaFoods (Europe’s largest dairy company) have forover a decade been offering their customers a widerange of organic products. Furthermore the retailtrade has shown its dedication to organics sincethe beginning of the 1990s.Organics in supermarketsIn contrast to most other countries, organic productshave mainly been sold through conventionalsupermarkets. Today, this goes for around 90 percent of all sales. As a consequence of the easyaccess to all kinds of organic products – from milkto coffee and crisps – around 50 per cent of allDanes actually buy organic foods during a randomweek according to a survey carried out in 2002 byIFKA, a research institute in Copenhagen.Sounding board for strategic issuesThe positive attitude towards organics across thetraditional boundaries is reflected, among otherthings, in the strategy group formed following aninitiative by Organic Denmark. The forum, whichconsists of leaders from the most important retailchains in Denmark, food producers, relevant organisationsand authorities, acts as a sounding boardfor the organic marketing initiatives in Denmark. Ithelps create solid decision-making platforms withbroad commitment.20 21
