Boreal Trade summary
Quinlan Brothers Ltd. is a seafood exporter based in St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador. Its record lists a multi-species range rather than a single product.
The species include Atlantic cod, snow (queen) crab, Atlantic halibut and Greenland halibut (turbot). It also lists monkfish.
Pelagic lines on record are capelin, Atlantic herring and Atlantic mackerel. Lumpfish roe is also listed.
On its LinkedIn page the company describes a multi-species seafood operation in Newfoundland and Labrador. It says the fish is wild-harvested and landed at its plants.
The same page says the company has operated for about 70 years. It gives 1954 as its founding year.
The company states that it exports to more than 20 countries. It does not name them there, and its Southeast Asian activity is not established here.
The range suits buyers who want to source several North Atlantic species from one Newfoundland supplier. That includes whitefish, crab, pelagic fish and roe.
Importers and distributors looking for a single-species specialist may find the list broader than they need. Specifications and formats are best confirmed with the company 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.
