About Us

Our Mandate
The PEI Seafood Processors Association (PEISPA) is a non-profit organization dedicated to resolving issues common to the membership as well as providing advocacy and HR support to PEI's seafood processing sector.

By working together, we believe we can grow the seafood sector for the benefit of fishers, communities and all Islanders. PEISPA acts as a liaison on behalf of seafood processors with federal and provincial governments, Atlantic seafood associations, the Canadian Food Inspection Agency and other regulatory bodies that impact seafood processing.

The Association is guided by a Board of Directors, an Executive Director and HR and Finance support.

Our Members:
Seafood processing operations are located in many of our rural coastal communities. Seafood Processors offer students rewarding employment opportunities in their modern and federally-inspected facilities. If you are interested in working in a lobster or mussel processing operation, please contact one of our members listed on our Team Food Island website. We would love to have you join our team for this spring and summer. Come and experience work in our sector, you just may decide to make a career as a processing line supervisor, a Red Seal trades-person, a quality control technician or a marketing manager. Come and experience a job in seafood processing and see if it’s for you!
