History

Løgismose was founded by Sven and Lene Grønlykke, who abandoned a career in film-making to instead become culinary entrepreneurs, naming their enterprise after Løgismose Castle on the Danish island of Funen which they had acquired in 1965[2] In 1970 they acquired the local Haarby Dairy, then faced with closure, and Falsled Kro, a run-down country inn which they converted into a French gourmet restaurant which introduced La Nouvelle cuisine to Denmark under the leadership of French chef Michel Michaud.[3] Produce was at first flown in from Paris but was increasingly provided from their own estate and local producers. They also imported French wines, mainly Beaujolais, introducing George Duboeuf's wines to the Danish market.

Ownership

The company was purchased by IK Investment Partners and merged with most of Claus Meyer's culinary activities to form Løgismose Meyers in 2015,[1]
