Rich in tradition, PEI has a superior world-wide reputation for the quality and flavour of our cultured seafood products.

Our abundant supply of high-quality groundwater also allows for dynamic Rainbow trout, Atlantic salmon, and Atlantic halibut hatcheries, nurseries and production units to thrive in the global marketplace.
