The result was speedy keep. While not actually withdrawing the nominator has now said "this certainly passes GNG easily." So WP:SK would seem to apply. (non-admin closure) Shawn in Montreal (talk) 17:50, 1 June 2017 (UTC)

The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing General notability guideline and the more detailed Notability (companies) requirement. Originally PRODed by other user. De PRODed by new user who is only deproding articles without any improvement/explanation. — usernamekiran (talk)  11:05, 31 May 2017 (UTC)

 * Keep: Well, notability depends not on sources in the article but what is out there. Being Iceland's oldest freezery, over a century old, could certainly be notable. Apart from the cited source (which is a substantial article on the firm's centenary), there is a period photo here, a history book (Courage, J. 1992) entirely about the company, and notices about the company as you'd expect on the Nordic Exchange. I found details of the firm's football team here. All that's just on the first 2 pages of a search, which would be easier for an Icelandic speaker. This looks to me like a notable company.

 * Keep - thanks to work by this is clearly notable, by GNG if nothing else.    78.26   (spin me / revolutions) 20:32, 31 May 2017 (UTC)
