Arctic Fishery Alliance

Welcome

Thank you for visiting our website. As Nunavut's first 100% Inuit owned and governed fish harvesting enterprise, we strive to ensure that the benefits from Nunavut's offshore fishing resources are returned to our owners in the communities of:

  • Arctic Bay
  • Grise Fiord
  • Qikiqtarjuaq
  • Resolute Bay

Built in 1987, AFA purchased the 100' fixed gear factory freezer in 2010. Since its purchase the vessel has been modified to harvest turbot using gillnets in Northern Canada.

The Kiviuq 1 is the sister ship to the Suvak. After extensive modifications and conversions it is set up as a fixed gear wet fish vessel to harvest Atlantic Halibut, cod and hake in Eastern Canada. The vessel is also used for exploratory fisheries and scientific research in Northern Canada.
