(Chionoecetes opilio)
Caught in the icy cold waters in the Canadian
North Atlantic Ocean, our crab is known for its sweet
flavour, tender texture and high meat content.
Ranging in size from 1 to 2 lbs., Atlantic Snow Crab is an excellent source of
protein, as well as being low in fat and calories and its beautiful shell colour will
surely impress.
Our premium quality Snow Crab is caught by local independent harvesters
through a Trap Fishery located within 175kms of our processing facility in the
pristine waters off of Canada’s East Coast. Because our crab is fished by trap
and delivered live to our processing plant, the freshness and quality of the
product is preserved until it reaches our customers.
Over 15 vessels annually supply our plant with 6+ million pounds of fresh live crab which we process into cooked brine frozen clusters/sections and market
under our “Grampa Harvey” brand.
We follow the most stringent Quality Control Practices. Our facility is federally
registered and inspected. Our HACCP based Quality Management Program
is approved by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency. 3rd party audits are
performed annually. Every container of finished crab is tested by our in-house lab
prior to shipping. We have full traceability of product from arrival at our plant to
customer delivery.
