OUR STORYThe story Behind SVART GULD
SVART GULD™ was born in Ålesund, Norway from a passion for flavour, quality and continuous discovery.
After more than 30 years in professional kitchens across Australia, Asia, Europe and Scandinavia—and over a decade at sea within Norway’s fishing industry—founder Dean Gleeson developed a passion for ingredients, cultures and flavours that eventually led to the creation of SVART GULD™.
Inspired by Norway’s rugged coastline, pristine environment and strong food traditions, SVART GULD™ is dedicated to creating black garlic with depth, character and purpose.
Every stage of the journey is guided by patience, precision and continuous learning.

FROM FJORD TO TABLE
One Ingredient. Endless Possibilities.
From freshly landed Nordic seafood to premium meats, vegetables, sauces, and fine dining creations, SVART GULD™ brings natural sweetness, rich umami and remarkable depth to every plate
