Sustainability and transparency

We are family business established back in 1868. Our ancestors ran a tannery and leather making business in the 19th century. The workshop continued into the 21st century, but today the business revolves around trading gifts and souvenirs to shops and individuals both in- and outside Norway. In recent years the growth of tourism in Norway and the subsequent demand for souvenirs has made the selling of those items the company's highest priority.

You can find us in a small village named Ler, about 30 km south of Trondheim. 

Brødrene Flaarønning design our own products, and some production is based in Norway, though most our manufacturers are located in the Baltics and the East. 

Both environmental and ethical work can be challenging to stay on top of with a substantial amount of small manufacturers all over the world. The board however has strong ambitions to be the best concerning the environment and ethical work in our line of work.
