The municipality has a varied business sector with industry and agriculture as important pillars. Vik is particularly known for fruit growing, raspberries and old cheese. TINE Meieriet Vik is the only dairy in the country that produces old cheese, and "Old cheese from Vik" has the status of a protected geographical indication. The Old Cheese Festival and the Norwegian Raspberry Festival highlight the strong food traditions in the municipality.
