History of Fishermen’s Management Services Ltd. and Sweetapple & Associates

Fishermen’s Management Services Ltd. was established in 1979. It was a one person accounting operation in the Town of Harbour Grace that specialized in accounting and taxation matters for Newfoundland and Labrador’s Fish Harvesters.

Within a year, we realized that in order to better represent the Newfoundland and Labrador Fish Harvesting Industry in accounting and taxation matters, we would have to relocate. In 1980, we moved our head office to Gander so that it was equally accessible to our ever growing clientele from all areas of the Province.

As our clientele growth continued and diversified to encompass clients from other types of business, we opened a subsequent division of Fishermen’s Management Services Ltd. - Sweetapple & Associates. Our accounting clientele has grown substantially since it’s inception over 29 years ago! Today we proudly cater to hundreds of clients which include a wide variety of industries.
