St. George, New Brunswick, Canada - The Cooke family is deeply saddened to announce the death on March 3, 2024, of Gifford Cooke, co-founder with his sons Glenn and Michael Cooke in 1985 of Cooke Aquaculture Inc.

"On behalf of the Cooke family and our employees, I would like to express our gratitude for the immense contributions Gifford has made to rural coastal communities in Eastern Charlotte, New Brunswick, and throughout Atlantic Canada and the globe,” commented Joel Richardson, Vice President of Public Relations. "Over the decades, Gifford and his children, Glenn, Michael and Debbie built a local family company into a global seafood leader with fully integrated facilities, product lines and distribution networks. Cooke provides careers to nearly 13,000 employees in 15 countries and is passionate about supporting community and conservation projects.”

Gifford was a marine mechanic for much of his career in Blacks Harbour. At Cooke Aquaculture, he worked alongside the employees to modernize the company’s freshwater salmon hatcheries, vessel fleet, and led countless construction projects.

Gifford’s outgoing personality, robust work ethic, friendly sense of humour and steadfast faith will leave a void not easily filled. The global Cooke family will miss him greatly. Our thoughts and prayers are with his wife Marjorie, family, and his many friends.

Our Story

Wanchese Fish Company was founded in 1936 and has grown to become a leading supplier of seafood products in North America and Europe. A vertically integrated seafood harvester, processor, and distributor, Wanchese is capable of harvesting over 4,000 tons of wild scallops, shrimp, oysters, king crab, and other seafood products each year. Our industry leading fleet of 16 vessels, including 5 in Argentina, has process-at-sea capabilities. Our state of the art processing plant and cold storage facility is in Suffolk, VA

It all began in 1936

Our story began when a hard-working, innovative man, W.R. Etheridge, started a fish processing plant in the small fishing village of Wanchese, NC on Roanoke Island in 1936. In 1941, Malcolm Daniels married Etheridge’s daughter, Maude, and later joined the business of sorting, packing and shipping fresh seafood. Soon after, in 1946, Daniels was given charge of the company. The Daniels’ had 15 children—all of which have contributed to the company’s success.

The late 90’s

In the late ’90s in response to the increasing demand and price of scallops, the Daniels family began using new technology to generate the Wanchese Scallop Medallions™ . With this new method, which resulted in a high-demand, flavorful product, Wanchese Fish Company saw even more growth. In response, the family opened a state-of-the art processing plant and cold storage facility in Suffolk, Virginia. This building also houses the company’s corporate offices. With this expansion into our new 300,000 square foot facility, Wanchese continued the tradition of developing new, cost-effective technologies to improve operation efficiency and add new value-added products to both our food service and retail lines.

Wanchese today!

In 2015, Wanchese Fish Company was acquired by Cooke Seafood USA, owned by the Cooke Family, one of the world’s leading seafood producers. This allowed Wanchese to remain a family owned company with more opportunities to harvest and distribute seafood on a global level. The Cooke family, with six generations of fishing in their blood, has parlayed its knowledge of the local climate, sea, and environment with hard work and persistence, into becoming world-leading innovators in sustainable seafood farming. history-salmon.

Over the years the company expanded its facilities, product lines and distribution networks to become the fully integrated corporation it is today with operations in New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia, Newfoundland, Maine, Virginia, Washington, Alaska, Argentina, Chile, Spain and Scotland as well as sales representatives in major centers in the United States, Canada, Europe, and Asia.
