History

Doucet Fisheries Ltd was incorporated by George Doucet in 1978, although George had run a small fish filleting enterprise in Weymouth, Nova Scotia since 1955. His son Michel Doucet, now owner of Doucet Fisheries Ltd grew up on the wharves of Southwest Nova Scotia working alongside his father who retired in 1984. In the spring of that year, Michel graduated from Moncton University with a Business Degree and returned home to work at the business full time. In the fall of 2008 the processing was moved to a new facility located in Comeauville, Nova Scotia. Thirty employees work almost full time, contributing to provide top quality haddock, cod, flounder and ocean perch fillets to long-time and new customers of Doucet Fisheries Ltd.
