Celebrated 25 Years of Trading with Greenland
Nordjyske Stiftstidende 2003
Around 50,000 Dkr. was the amount more than 300 guests brought along, when Arctic Import in Nørresundby celebrated its 25th anniversary with a reception at Tagholm 12.
For the company celebrating its anniversary had wished for presents of money which then is to be donated to charitable purposes in Greenland. For which purpose will only be revealed when Arctic Import later this month holds an equivalent anniversary reception in Nuuk.
Mr Gunnar Laursen, managing director expects that there will also be around 300 guests with equally large presents of money so that a donation of around 100,000 Dkr. can be realistic.
"After 25 years of trading in the society in Greenland we want to take this opportunity to reciprocate for the confidence”, the manager explains.
Arctic Import Ltd. was founded in Nuuk in 1978, where it delivered products and solutions to tradesmen. Later on Arctic Import established office and head office in Aalborg. At the end of the 1990ies the head office had become so bulky that they had to move to Nørresundby. Before the end of 2001 the first extension was carried out.
Having reached a substantial turnover in the last couple of years Arctic Import has been nominated a Gazelle in 1999, 2000 and 2001 in the analysis of the fastest growing companies carried out by the business newspaper Børsen.
