CAUGHT IN NORTH AMERICA.

Wyse Bay Artisanal Scallops are wild caught in the north eastern coast of North America between New England and New Brunswick. By taking advantage of this environment which is known to be the best in the world for scallops to grow, Wyse Bay Artisanal Scallops yield a truly remarkable product. Our Artisanal Scallops are a premium seafood product and we make sure every process of our cold chain is designed to delicately handle these delicacies of the sea.

NO MOISTURE ADDED . . . EVER.

Wyse Bay Artisanal Scallops are all natural as the oceans and seas intended. This means, that no moisture at all is added to our Artisanal Scallops. You can instantly tell this distinction as soon as you cook our Artisanal Scallops. They will have a significantly smaller shrinkage and the taste will be all pure scallop. Even when raw, they will not have a chemical or slimey touch to them as some scallops currently do in the market place.

SUSTAINABLE PRACTICES.

An important part of our Wyse Bay Artisanal Scallops is utilizing the most sustainable practices in catching our Artisanal Scallops. Whenever possible, we use diver caught scallops, but due to the high demand of our scallops, we still use the dredge method of catching them. This allows Wyse Bay to offer our fresh Artisanal Scallops all year long. As a result, our Wyse Bay Artisanal Scallops have a Yellow ranking from SeaChoice.

Our Commitment to achieving sustainablity goals are:

Reduce energy usage and energy-related carbon dioxide emissions

Reduce waste and water use

Reduce packaging waste

Reduce noise impact at marine sites

Maintain bio-diversity of the marine eco-system
