Princes is a well-established British brand specializing in canned foods, particularly seafood and fruit. The brand was founded in Liverpool, England, in 1880 as a fish importing business. Over the decades, it expanded its portfolio and became a staple in British households. Its canned salmon is sourced from global fisheries, typically in the North Pacific (Alaska or Canada), and processed in various locations depending on the source of the catch.
Ownership of Princes has changed hands several times. After being a subsidiary of the Japanese Mitsubishi Corporation for over three decades, the brand was acquired by the Italian food group Newlat Food S.p.A. in 2024. This acquisition has consolidated Princes into a major European food conglomerate, though the brand maintains its historical headquarters and strong operational presence in the United Kingdom.
