Export Packers Adopts Safe Harbor® Mercury Testing Program for Seafood
Brampton - January, 2010

Export Packers Company Limited has announced that it has obtained the exclusive rights for all of Canada to supply seafood under the Safe Harbor® mercury certification program which will enable Export Packers to supply the Canadian market with healthier seafood. Implemented due to concerns over mercury concentration in seafood and a current lack of industry-wide testing, Export Packers will be able to provide the Canadian seafood industry with product that is tested and certified resulting in the assurance that mercury levels are significantly below food safety standards specified by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA). Safe Harbor’s proprietary technology analysis makes it possible to quickly and accurately test any fish species for low-mercury levels and apply its certification to ensure high quality, healthy seafood.

“When it comes to screening for mercury levels in fish under current government standards a very small percentage of fish is tested”, states Dan LeBlanc, President, Export Packers. “Without more wide-spread testing, there is little assurance that any particular fish has actually been tested and would meet current government standards. This partnership makes Export Packers the first Canadian seafood importer to be able to verify quickly and accurately that maximum mercury concentration levels as specified by CFIA for each species are not exceeded.”

“We are very excited to partner with Export Packers to supply the Canadian market with healthy seafood”, said Malcolm Wittenberg, CEO, Safe Harbor®. “Mercury exists in all fish and can vary significantly, even within species that are not typically thought of as potentially hazardous. Our Safe Harbor® program eliminates any uncertainty by ensuring fish that is tested and certified meets the highest standards for mercury safety and quality.”
