Boreal Trade summary
Royal Star Foods Ltd. processes lobster and snow crab at its plant in Tignish, Prince Edward Island.
Its website describes wild-caught Prince Edward Island lobster and crab for retail and food service.
It also lists wholesale products for resellers. Third-party labelling is offered.
The company is a subsidiary of the Tignish Fisheries Co-op Association Ltd. The plant was built in 1995, according to a Prince Edward Island archive.
CBC reported that Royal Star has processed lobster in Tignish for many years. It has recently worked on a lobster dip for Island shelves, developed with Holland College's Canada's Smartest Kitchen.
The plant has a direct sale outlet for fresh seafood. Its website says it delivers to restaurants, markets and grocery chains.
Export markets and export volumes are not established. Its website mentions worldwide distribution without naming markets.
It suits importers and distributors looking for processed lobster and snow crab, and those wanting private-label supply from a Prince Edward Island plant.

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.
