About Barry Group Inc
Barry Group Inc. has been involved in fish harvesting and processing since the 1830's. In 1854 we established the current business in Corner Brook, Newfoundland.
During the 1960's, the advent of modern technology presented promising business opportunities and, as a result, the Barry Group placed greater focus on quality, customer service, and marketing, while significantly expanding the customer base and production with more diverse species and packs.
The responsible expansion of the Barry Group was contrived in the final decade of the last century with strategic access to more processing plants, and expanded quotas. This expansion allowed the company to begin diversifying domestically and internationally.
Today, a large and skillful workforce throughout Atlantic Canada processes thousands of tons of fish from an expanding list of species for the demanding and competitive international market.

The major fish species which we are currently involved with are as follows:
