Trident Seafoods is currently in the planning stages for development of its new, state-of-the-art seafood processing facility in Carrollton. Utilizing frozen fish fillets and fillet blocks as raw material, the facility will add value by producing portion-controlled frozen seafood products, as well as a diverse variety of battered, glazed, breaded, fryer- and oven-ready frozen items.

Trident plans to expand the facility by an additional 43,000 square feet.Completion of the project is expected in the fourth quarter of 2014. Hiring will take place in mid-2014.
