What Aliments Nordfish Inc. does

Aliments Nordfish Inc., operating as North Fish USA, is a wholesale smoked fish manufacturer based in New Castle, Delaware. The company operates a 25,000+ square foot purpose-built processing facility in the Northeast corridor, producing smoked, salted, and dried fish products for distribution across all 50 states and into Canada. Its product portfolio spans more than 50 SKUs across 15+ species, with flagship offerings in cold-smoked salmon, Semga, smoked mackerel, escolar, smoked herring, and specialty species such as Omul, Arctic Cisco, Saury, and Whitefish, supplemented by economy trimmings for food service applications. The company's technology stack centers on two industrial smoking chambers producing 40,000+ lbs of hot- and cold-smoked fish weekly, semi-automatic precision slicing lines, vacuum-sealed packaging, and climate-controlled cold chain management from raw material receiving through final shipment. Every product carries OU Kosher certification through the Orthodox Union, and the facility operates under FDA inspection (21 CFR Part 123) with a documented HACCP plan.

North Fish USA serves three primary B2B segments — regional and national grocery retailers, regional distributors, and food service operators — plus specialty food retailers and delicatessens serving Eastern European, Scandinavian, and Asian retail channels, and a private label program for food brands seeking own-branded smoked fish. Revenue is generated exclusively through direct wholesale transactions; no e-commerce or self-serve ordering is offered on the public website, and pricing is provided on a quote basis after consultation. The go-to-motion is inquiry-driven, with a website, contact form, and direct phone line funneling wholesale requests to a production-side team that commits to one-business-day response times. The company is privately held with no disclosed institutional investors, parent company, or public filings, and no revenue figure is publicly disclosed. The firmographic headcount of 1-10 appears to reflect office and managerial staff only and does not account for production labor.
