We Are Watching Every Step of the Way

Emphasizing Food Safety & Quality Assurance 

Island Sea Farms Logo

Our processing facility, together with our hatchery and farm, guarantees that we can operate an efficient communication loop, minimizing food security risks and putting the responsibility solely on us to ensure our customer needs are met.

Our plant is HACCP Certified and fully compliant with all major retailer food safety programs.   The plant is overseen by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA). These safety standards require strict scheduled temperature monitoring and traceability of mussels from harvest to final destination.
