Rafols
A premium desalted Icelandic Codfish
Ràfols Codfish has been produced for more than 70 years in keeping with the traditional system. All our products are coming from cod fishes of more than 4 kg in weight, opened “butterfly” style and salted for 3 months in Iceland, all done by hand. During this process, the gelatine that will impregnate the white flesh is released from the backbone and in turn produces a fish that is characteristically soft and tender while retaining the “cured” flavour that is essential in traditional salting.

Jordi Ràfols
The producer of top-quality traditional desalted cod
Expanded offerings by providing new options
Jordi Rafols continues a family tradition, as he took over in the 1970s. While he carried on the retail business at the beginning, he soon began to serve restaurants seeking cod that was top quality, desalted and ready to cook. With the growing demand for desalted cod in restaurants, around 1990 he decided to devote all his attention to this sector. He channelled all his energy and dedication into this challenging new option. The experience and know-how of his entire team were clear but so was something more important: the excited optimism of tackling a new project.
