Our source of pride, a force for good.
Eating more seafood has the power to improve your health, reverse trends contributing to climate change, and preserve our freshwater resources. We make it simple for you to eat it more often by sourcing from quality, sustainable fisheries and responsibly producing seafood you love at our plants here in Maine. We invite you to join our mission to make seafood your favorite protein.
Here in Maine, we believe anything worth doing is worth doing right. We’re here to serve all of our stakeholders, including our people, community, environment, suppliers, and of course – you – our customer.
We believe all seafood we eat should be sustainably sourced. Our products are sustainably and responsibly harvested, verified by groups like the Marine Stewardship Council, Fair Trade USA, the Aquaculture Stewardship Council, or part of an active fishery improvement project.
The way consumers shop, store, cook, and eat seafood has evolved over the last few years. It makes sense that the way we deliver, prepare, and package our product does too. Whether we deliver to a high-end chef or a home-cook, we want to add the value you are looking for while maintaining the premier quality all have come to expect from us.
We believe in treating people fairly and with dignity and respect. We set our starting wage higher than minimum wage and provide our workers with benefits, training, and advancement opportunities. We are the first Fair Trade Certified seafood company in the United States. Diversity, equity, and inclusion are at the bedrock of who we are and how we operate.
We believe companies can be a force for good in the communities in which they operate. One way we do this is through Inclusion in the Blue Economy, a program we founded and underwrote with the New England Ocean Cluster aimed at bringing women, people of color, and folks with non-marine backgrounds into the industry.
We believe we must be a good steward of our environment in every way. We operate a zero-fish-waste facility, have annual energy conservation goals, minimize our water use, and work towards 100% recyclable or compostable packaging.
Our team hand-finishes and inspects all of our seafood before it makes its way to your table. It’s not the cheapest way to do it, but it sure is the best.
Great teams need great tools. So we invest in the latest technologies, including x-ray, vision, and waterjet cutting. With these tools, our team can consistently produce best-in-class seafood products with precision and accuracy.
We are a partner for growth for our customers. We listen to your needs and set you up for success with consistent quality seafood, market and fishery knowledge, and training for your team.
