Boreal Trade summary
Icewater Seafoods Inc. processes Atlantic cod at Arnold's Cove, Newfoundland and Labrador. Its record also lists flounder/sole, haddock, hake, Atlantic halibut and pollock.
It is a family-owned business, run by Alberto Wareham as president and CEO. CBC reports the family has been in the fish trade since 1823, beginning in nearby Harbour Buffett.
The company has focused on cod since 1979. CBC reports it kept the plant running through the moratorium years by buying fish from other countries.
In 2024 it processed the first catches of the reopened commercial cod fishery. In 2025 it processed offshore northern cod, which the company said was its first Canadian-caught offshore cod since 1992.
It has described itself as the only North American processor dedicated full-time to Atlantic cod. In 2025 it was seeking to send processed northern cod to the U.S.
Volumes, product forms and the markets it serves in Southeast Asia are not established here.
It suits buyers looking for Atlantic cod from a long-running, cod-focused plant, with a few other groundfish species available. Ask the company about formats and supply directly.

Approval means the destination authority has listed the establishment. It does not tell you whether the company is currently shipping.
Canada publishes an approved-establishment list for Vietnam, Singapore, Indonesia and Malaysia, and none for Thailand or the Philippines, so those two read "not yet verified" for every company.
Elsewhere it means we have not found the company on that market's list, never that they are unregistered.
