St. Jean's Cannery & SmokehouseWhat Seafood Should Be
St. Jean’s Cannery & Smokehouse has been mastering the art of West Coast seafood since 1961, back when Armand St. Jean first fired up the smoker. Still proudly carrying on the family tradition—and now owned by Nuu-chah-nulth Seafoods—we’ve kept the legacy alive while staying ahead of the tide.
From perfectly smoked wild salmon to our famous canned seafood, we don’t just preserve the flavors of the coast—we celebrate them. Sustainable? Always. Delicious? Absolutely. It’s all about bringing the best of the sea to your table, one bite at a time.

Seafood For Your PetsNature's Best Food from Canada's West Coast
After crafting gourmet wild seafood products for seafood fans for more than 60 years, we had a ‘Eureka!’ moment: our pets deserve the outstanding flavour and nutrition from wild seafood, too!
This notion gave birth to Healthy Shores, the new pet food division of St. Jean’s Cannery. Just like the seafood for our human friends, the seafood ingredients for our pets are locally-sourced, Ocean Wise-recommended for sustainability, and traceable back to the fisher who caught them.
