Grimsby’s Northcoast Seafoods has been bought out by a major European player backed by a global giant.
The retail-focused manufacturer, grown from a single North Atlantic prawn trading entity by managing director Fridrik Thorsteinsson over the past two decades, now operates from a large processing base on South Humberside Industrial Estate.
It has been acquired by Dutch business Seafood Connection, part of the Japanese Maruha Nichiro group.
