We work with them to ensure seafood arrives at our facility in the most fresh quality possible.In addition, the Government of Norway and Labrador enforces a quality program for harvesters to monitor temperature, storage and handling. Vessels are inspected at random upon landing.

Shipping Information
We depend upon established transportation systems to ensure that our seafood reaches our primary customers quickly and according to schedule. As sales orders are filled our freight forwarders book the necessary trucks and ocean containers to service our international customers in the United States of America Canada, Asia and Europe.
Delivery
We use local land carriers to transport seafood to customers safely and quickly. Seafood is loaded on reefer tractor trailers at our facilities, transported across the Gulf of St. Lawrence via ferry and trucked to various cities.
Delivery Duration
Normal transit time will be 4 days to the east coast and 10 days to the west coast. Using major ocean container line services from St. John's and Argentia, Newfoundland and Halifax, Nova Scotia we can deliver frozen seafood to major Asian ports in 17 days and to European ports in 10 days. We also do air shipment which take lesser time frame. We follow the progress of our seafood shipments using a track and recall procedure as part of our quality assurance program. In addition, transportation companies have quality control systems in place to monitor containers in terms of storage temperature, (-21 C or colder), handling and logistics requirements.
