Tradition · development From the company’s foundation in 1912 right up to the present day, we have prided ourselves on always being at the forefront of technological development. It all started with frame production, and the company has traded in a wide range of goods over the years, including butter, perfumes, photography and toys.

From 1925 onwards, radio became the main activity, and as technology developed, Sigurd Solberg AS was in the vanguard, selling TV, photographic equipment, white goods and marine electronics. The original business has since been spun off into a separate company: Elkjøp Fjordane, which runs electrical retail outlets in Florø, Førde and Måløy. Sigurd Solberg AS specialises in marine electronics.

Over the years, the company has enjoyed constant growth, and now has a staff of around 20 personnel with a high level of expertise and experience within marine electronics.

In 1980, Sigurd Solberg was one of the founders of Navy, a nationwide chain specialising in marine electronics. Navy provides full service on all its products the full length of the Norwegian coast.
