The growing list of distributors for the CatchCam gear-mounted cameras system developed by SafetyNet Technologies has been joined by Hampidjan Canada.
“Hampidjan Canada has always been a strong advocate for using technology to fish smarter not harder. Partnering with CatchCam is an obvious choice for our company as it allows us to introduce a new technology to the local fishing industry that can produce immediate gains in terms of efficiency and sustainability,” said Hampidjan Canada’s Kelly Moret.
Based in Newfoundland and Nova Scotia, Hampidjan Canada is an integral part of the local fishing industry, specialising in providing reliable equipment for commercial fishermen.
“Their position makes them ideal distributors for CatchCam on the Canadian market,” said SafetyNet Technologies head of precision Tom Rossiter.
“I was impressed with the innovation underway in the Canadian industry, from circular economy to precision fishing, it was clear that the industry in the region is aware of its place and responsibilities.”
CatchCam has become popular as a robust underwater video camera for commercial fishing, featuring a four-day battery life, wireless operation and fishing-specific settings. Its latest version can be deployed at depths of up to 800 metres and comes paired with a 500 lumens lamp.
“The CatchCam package makes it easy for commercial fishermen to film their fishing gear in action, ensuring that any issues are identified and quickly corrected where needed,” Tom Rossiter said.
“Hampidjan Canada is actively engaged with the local industry and champions sustainable and efficient fishing practices. Their close relationship with the fishing community is important to us. Our products have been designed with fishermen and for fishermen and working with Hampidjan will help us to build on this with new customers in Canada.”
