As has been stated recently, it is forbidden to sell any kind of food, cakes, cookies or jam, which is produced in an uncertified kitchen, and it is the food legislation that stipulates this.
Matís operates Matarsmiðjar in several places in the country and all Matísmiðjar Matís kitchens are certified and licensed by the health inspectorate of each area.
Matarsmiðjar Matís offers individuals, entrepreneurs and small businesses the opportunity to engage in product development and start small-scale food production for a small rent. In this way, they save on investments in expensive equipment right from the start of operations. This provides a unique opportunity to continue testing oneself both in production and in the market. Special emphasis is placed on development in connection with local food and food tourism services.
Matís food factories are in Flúðir, Höfn in Hornafjörður and Egilsstaðir. Further information about Matís' Food Workshops can be found here.
