A Tokyo group that controls access to roughly 26% of the Bering Sea Alaska pollock resource just bought itself a route onto North American supermarket shelves — for about C$804 million in cash.
Umios agreed on October 26 to acquire Nova Scotia’s High Liner Foods at C$27.00 per share, an equity value of roughly C$804 million. Closing is expected in January 2027, subject to 75% shareholder approval, Canadian Competition Act approval and U.S. Hart-Scott-Rodino clearance, with High Liner staying headquartered in Nova Scotia as the core of Umios’ North American base.
