Halfway between the North Pole and the equator. At the edge of North America. At the mouth of the Atlantic. A place called Nova Scotia. This is where the water runs cold and clean. Where the ocean is a way of life. And where the catch is always fresh. It’s a difference you can taste. This is Nova Scotia Seafood. Our new mark is our stake in the ground. Inspired by nautical design with clean lines

and clear type. 45° N 63° W. These aren’t mere numbers. Not any spot on the map. This is our code. A place where those who visit forever feel the pull of our tides. A little removed from the rest, but connected to the world by the waters of the Atlantic. This is where we are. This is who we are. Nova Scotia Seafood.

All sea cucumbers are ocean dwellers and inhabit the coastal shallows to the deep ocean. Sea Cucumbers from Nova Scotia are exported in different forms including dried and powdered. The product is known to have anti-inflammatory properties when eaten – there are even food toppers available for your dog!
