About Canica As
Canica AS is the single-family office of Norway's Hagen family, founded in 1985 by Stein Erik Hagen on proceeds from the RIMI grocery chain, which he sold in 2004. Today it ranks among Norway's largest privately owned investment companies, pursuing long-term, active ownership across consumer goods, retail, real estate and manufacturing—anchored by a roughly 25% stake in Orkla ASA and holdings such as the retailer Jernia. The office does not disclose its assets, though third-party estimates place them near $750M. Caroline Hagen Kjos, who has chaired Canica since 2014, assumed control in 2026 following the founder's death. The family's Swiss operations run through Canica Holding AG, led by CEO Christer Kjos.
