Nippon Suisan Kaisha (Nissui)-owned Alaska processing group UniSea's Unalaska facility is scheduled to reopen Monday after having to shut down in early January to contain a COVID-19 outbreak.
The company will be the first of three major Bering Sea pollock processors to reopen after COVID outbreaks forced stoppages and quarantines as the critical A fishing season got underway.
"We are still seeing a handful of positive cases, but they show up either in entry quarantine, which can be expected, or as part of the close contacts traced back to the original outbreak," UniSea President Tom Enlow told IntraFish.
