October 2, 2023 — Creditors of Blue Harvest Fisheries are not expected to recoup much, if any, of the money owed to them by the New Bedford, Massachusetts, U.S.A.-based Blue Harvest Fisheries, which filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy protection on 8 September.
The company, which filed 40 separate Chapter 7 applications for its various subsidies, cumulatively listed more than 2,200 parties as creditors. The list includes fishermen who had worked for Blue Harvest, municipalities from Georgia to Maine, seafood companies such as Eastern Fisheries and Atlantic Capes, and hundreds of small- and medium-sized support businesses, including the companies supply stores, shipyards, and mechanics.
