Herman Sjøgren was a Hammerfester, and his family history in the area dates back to 1834, when his ancestor, Nils Sjøgren, came to Hammerfest from Tornedalen. Nils Sjøgren sought out the copper mines in Kåfjord, but died only four years after arriving.
Sjøgren gjenvinning AS has been involved in logistics and recycling services since its inception. The company has developed over time and has contributed to local business and environmentally friendly solutions in the region. With its long history and connection to Hammerfest, Sjøgren gjenvinning AS has established itself as an important player in its field.
