Cooke Aquaculture, which had previously processed salmon in Harbour Breton, has found a new facility to process the fish on Newfoundland's south coast.
The Barry Group, owner of the Harbour Breton plant, opted to not renew Cooke's lease this past January.
Nell Halse, a Cooke Aquaculture spokesperson, said they have negotiated a long-term lease with Gray Processing Inc. for its new processing facility in Hermitage.
Commissioning of the plant will begin immediately with a projected opening date for early June.
