The Gjelsten family
The company's logo, which contains an eagle and a lily, is inspired by a family coat of arms from the 1500th century, and the Gjelsten family's ancestry goes back to the Gjelsten and Nakken farms northeast of Ålesund. The family's history is marked by both trade and business development.
From 1871, the trading company PA Gjelsten operated a significant business in trade and shipping from Fiksdal, which until the First World War was one of the largest trading centers between Trondheim and Bergen.
