We are founded on the belief that wild caught Alaskan seafood should be accessible to all Americans with varying budgets. We aim to harvest and produce our products sustainably, and make a positive impact in the communities where we live and work. All people should have the opportunity to incorporate wild-caught protein into their diets to improve their health. We pay fishermen above grounds price to ensure that they receive a fair wage for their catch. We provide community education on wild-caught fish, nutrition, small-boat Alaskan fisheries and fish processing. We are the only seafood purveyor who is a business member of Chicago Fair Trade. We are proud supporters of the Copper River Watershed Project, Prince William Sound Science Center and Waukesha County Green Team.
