The Fish, Food, and Allied Workers Union (FFAW), which represents fishing and processing workers in the Canadian province of Newfoundland, is accusing Royal Greenland of operating in bad faith in the province.

In a release from the FFAW, the union accused Royal Greenland of unethical business practices and is demanding a meeting with Newfoundland Fisheries Minister Gerry Byrne and Newfoundland Minister of Environment, Climate Change, and Labor Lisa Dempster. The FFAW said it wants provincial sanctions against Royal Greenland Seafood – which purchased Newfoundland-based Quin-Sea in 2016. Under Quin-Sea, Royal Greenland operates Conche Seafoods and has a joint venture with Clearwater Seafoods for a plant in St. Anthony.
