New Brunswick – Deliciously Canadian
SNOW CRAB
Chionoecetes Opilio
New Brunswick’s delicious snow crab comes from the pure and icy waters of Canada’s Atlantic Ocean. New Brunswick has a long history of fishing and nurturing snow crab. For generations, our fishermen have braved the elements, often travelling as far as 400 kilometres offshore, to catch this deep-water treasure. Our fishery is carefully managed to bring the highest quality product to market year-round.
Supporting an environmentally sustainable fishery, skilled fishers harvest only prime quality males that meet the catch size, returning the females to the water. Our state-of-the-art freezing and processing technology preserve the flavour, colour and nutritional value of the snow crab from the moment it’s caught. Our processing facilities are registered to meet international quality assurance standards, ensuring you receive a healthy, safe and high-quality product.
Buyers all over the world have come to rely on our snow crab for its premium quality shell, sweet natural taste, and consistent supply. New Brunswick snow crab is sure to be a showstopper!
