Ocean Mama, Delta, BC

Looking at the market 30 years ago, Peter noticed a very small sustainable shrimp industry. At the time, shrimp wasn’t very popular. Peter decided to concentrate his energy on the very inconsistent shrimp industry and make it sustainable. “I was always interested in the future of shrimp and how I can do this to ensure that shrimp stocks will be around forever with little impact on the environment.” In his new surroundings, not knowing anyone and speaking very little English, he dutifully set out knocking on restaurant doors, one by one, to introduce Vancouver to the finest sustainable shrimp available on the market. Today, Peter has grown to be one of the top seafood providers on the West Coast. Having built up very strong support with products for the Asian community under the 3Fish brand, efforts are now underway to grow the business under the “Ocean Mama” brand. This brand will specialize in frozen, value-added breaded and battered seafood products, along with a variety of fish fillets, shrimp and squid for the retail and food-service trade. “Even today I still love eating seafood and the fishing industry. I love seafood so much that I want to show other people these delicious products. I hope you will enjoy Ocean Mama products as much as I do!”
