Nordic Chefs Association

Category: Chef Associations

Nordic Chefs Association is a member of the World Junior Culinary Exchange and WACS, the World Association of Chefs Societies. Members of the Nordic Chefs Association are from Norway, Finland, Sweden, Denmark, and Iceland. The Association was organized in 1979 in Reykjavik, and the final amendments to the Statutes were adopted in 2003. The Nordic Chefs Association is a non-political organization whose objective is to unite and promote the cooking profession in the five Nordic countries. Each country is self-regulating in regard to activities, but the membership fee to the Association is the same for each.

The Board of Directors of the Nordic Chef Association consists of two members from each country. One of their duties as a Board is to confer the Cordon Rouge award every other year at the biennial conference to a member who has been actively involved in the Association for 15 years and has made a lasting contribution. There is also an annual Nordic Chef of the Year competition sponsored by the Nordic Chefs Association. Pictures of past competitions and the parties associated with them can be seen on the “Competitions” link of the website.  On the homepage is news about upcoming events and competitions. There are also links to each of the member country’s chapters.
