Spring 2008

In the spring of 2008 q media began to produce a series of videos for the Globe and Mail initiative, Business Incubator (www.globeandmail.com/incubator).  The CISCO sponsored series features companies that are using technology to move their business or service forward in innovative ways.

This story features Cooke Aquaculture, a New Brunswick success story.  Cooke is one of the largest fish farmers in the world.  Over the past number of years they’ve bought and turned around a number of local fish farms and turned them into a profitable business.  How?  Networked communications technology keeps Cooke staff on the cutting edge.  Staff receive constant updates on worldwide commodity prices so they can make informed harvesting decisions, while farm managers receive ongoing updates on water temperatures and environmental conditions to make key decisions around feed supply. 

Director Richard Quinlan and editor Graeme Mathieson teamed up to produce an interesting look at a surprising and innovative company.
