Corporate Profile

The story of NOWACO is somewhat of a fairytale. It is the story of husband and wife investing all of their belongings in pursuit of a dream. Going through turmoil and hardship they succeed, the dream comes true, and they live happily ever after. All right, the story has a few facets that need to be told to get the full picture of NOWACO. Nobody lives ever after, anyway.

In 1972 Preben Kurt Nielsen and his wife Juttine (Nowak) Nielsen mortgaged their house to start a trading firm which they called NOWACO.

Coming from a company that traded in food Nielsen knew what he was dealing with. Armed with an inventive mind and a typewriter, he and his wife, who knew how to settle the accounts, were in business. Soon NOWACO was a thriving trading company.

Part of the success was due to the fact that Nielsen often happened to be in the right spot at the right time.

Not by chance of course! He knew instinctively when to act on novel opportunities, and in many ways Nielsen was a pioneer in his field.

We make you feel goods!

The ability alone to buy and sell food and foodstuffs at the best prices doesn’t make you a winner in the area of food trading. What you really need to know is where on Earth to find the right customer for exactly the goods that you want to sell. Or maybe it is the other way around? You have the buyers but you need the goods.
