🇱🇻 Karavela’s journey from a small workshop to a European leader in canned fish production has always been closely tied to Latvia’s history. Together, we’ve walked through the highs and lows, hand in hand. Starting out as a manufacturer of metal cans in 1882, Karavela has withstood many trials and winds of change, including the most important one of all – the birth of an independent Latvia in 1918. Only by uniting our hearts, wisdom, and hard work we can achieve great things. This is how we will continue to carry the name of this country, far and wide, ensuring it resonates across the world. Happy 106th birthday, dear Latvia!

🐟 Co-owner and business development director of KARAVELA Janis Endele is a person who sees a well-thought-out strategy behind every new idea and an opportunity behind every challenge. Under his leadership, Karavela has grown to become the third-largest canned fish producer in Europe. Karavela’s market leadership is neither a coincidence nor a stroke of luck; it is based on strong market research and competitor analysis. His steady and confident approach to developing and launching new products is the key to Karavela’s success, as every decision is carefully considered and precise. 💬 Jānis admits: “Not every idea succeeds, but when we hit the right moment, we become market leaders for a while.” He emphasizes that product development is not about innovation for innovation’s sake but a necessity to ensure sustainable growth and stability for the company. Markets are constantly changing, and each has its own unique characteristics, which is why some products are specifically designed to fit particular countries. These tailored products have already successfully entered the U.S. and U.K. markets. However, this story isn’t just about products; it’s about a firm belief in following your own path and staying true to your choices. His approach is to trust his instincts and act pragmatically, even when others disagree. Choosing your own way, not fearing risks, and staying ahead of the competition is the foundation of Karavela’s long-term success.
