Meet the Team
Bruce
Owner and Manager
Bruce Keenan has always been tied to the ocean. Fishing, diving, and boating in the sounds as a boy, he felt a sense of pride and purpose when bringing home fresh fish for his family. Following a stint as a shearer and a successful career in agribusiness, Bruce, alongside wife Lisa, sought a new challenge — one that would bring the family together and satisfy his appetite for delicious seafood!
Lisa
Owner & Accounts
Canterbury born and raised, Lisa shares Bruce’s passion for homegrown produce and love of New Zealand’s beautiful and bountiful coastline. A primary school teacher by training, Lisa was secretly a bit pleased to trade the noisy classroom environment for the relative quiet of the office. That said, there’s still no time-wasting on her watch! Lisa's favourite seafood dish: Lemon baked snapper fillets.
Jacob
Marketing Manager & Sales
Jacob, Bruce and Lisa’s eldest son, is a man on the go. Jacob manages our customer experience — ensuring every order is delivered fresh from dock-to-door with the utmost care. Like all good logisticians, Jacob is results-focused and dedicated to the task at hand; he’s at the very centre of Ocean North Seafood’s customer success story. Jacob's favourite dish: Barbequed mussels wrapped in bacon.
