About Narvesen
Narvesen is the Norwegian kiosk chain founded in 1894, which came into the group in 2000 when Reitan Narvesen was created. Reitan Convenience runs it in Norway, Latvia and Lithuania, and has pushed it towards food-to-go, hot and cold drinks and bakery rather than the newspapers and magazines the name was built on. REMA 1000 Norway distributes goods to the Norwegian Narvesen stores as well as to its own.
