The Premium Seafoods Group began as one company, Premium Seafoods Ltd, in 1984 when three French Acadian entrepreneurs - Edgar Samson, Brian Samson, and John F. Samson - formed a small lobster and fish brokering company. Although John Samson has since passed away, the two remaining partners have expanded the original company to a group of companies employing over 200 workers, buying and or processing in excess of 15 million pounds of seafood annually.
Although the group of companies have expanded, Edgar Samson and Brian Samson still hold true to small community values and their French Acadian roots. Their belief in hard work, honesty and commitment to the customer is just as strong as their pride and support of their Acadian heritage and small community.
