Grieg Seafood started farming in Canada in 2001 in Esperanza Inlet on the West Coast of Vancouver Island, British Columbia.
The company’s activities have expanded over the years with farm sites now located in Nootka Sound and on the East Coast of Vancouver Island as well. In January 2007, Grieg Seafood BC Ltd purchased 8 farm sites in Sechelt, a small coastal community located North West of Vancouver. Grieg BC holds 21 farm licences, has its own hatchery located in Gold River, and owns a small processing plant on BC’s Sunshine Coast, in Egmont.
British Columbians are passionate about the environment and Grieg Seafood BC Ltd. shares our communities’ commitment to sustainability. We have established best management practices and industry standards that exceed government requirements through a program of continuous improvement to reduce our impact on the environment and its inhabitants.
Our close proximity to the US, Canadian, and Asian markets allows this production region to directly supply these markets and ensures that there is no compromise in delivering the freshest fish to our customers.
