As a seafood processor, we recognize our responsibility to the resource, to our fishermen and to our community.
We run Catch Sitka Seafoods with great care and intention.
We believe that each fish deserves to be treated with a singular devotion to quality and the respect due to a wild creature, and that this dedication to respect, service, and connection extends all the way to our customers.
Our seafood comes with a 100% satisfaction guarantee. At every step of the process from fish to plate, we strive to honor our community, our customers, and the environment in which we live and work.
Our Values
Community and People:
We are committed to our community: There are many challenges associated with living and operating a business in rural Alaska. We commit to hiring local, and adding value to our seafoods right here in Sitka. We would never ship our seafood overseas to be processed in part because we want to keep more money circulating in the hands of Alaskans. We don’t cut corners to save a dime, we love our little coastal community and use our operation to support our neighbors and stimulate our local economy as much as we can.
Environment:
We are committed to stewarding our resources. Alaska’s fisheries are strictly regulated with longevity in mind. Many of our fishermen run family operations, and fishing sustainably means that their children will have access to our fisheries and bountiful waters. Our fishermen are the ultimate stewards, safeguarding this resource for generations to come.
Transparency:
We keep our process local. Our fish are caught by trusted fishermen in Southeast Alaskan waters, our artisan processors prepare and package portions in our family-owned processing plant, we package each curated box by hand before shipping to our customers. We have our hands on every single part of the process, ensuring consistent quality, service, & satisfaction.
Health:
We value our health, the vitality of our families, AND the health of our customers. Purchasing Alaskan wild seafood isn’t just good for the planet, it’s good for our bodies too.
Efficiency:
We are committed to eliminating as much waste as possible: We are fish people and ocean lovers. We hate seeing trash in our seas and are appalled when we read about microplastics accumulating in global fisheries. We are incredibly thankful to live in and operate out of Southeast Alaska where our waters are pristine. However, we recognize our role as Global Citizens. That’s why our packaging is reusable and/or recyclable. We do all of our packaging and processing in Sitka which helps us to eliminate our carbon emissions. We offset our carbon by making donations to our local Sitka Carbon Offset program.
Quality and Service:
We are committed to quality: We know how valuable these wild resources are and we treat them with utmost respect and care. Every single fish is hook and line caught, immediately cleaned and kept cooled and then blast frozen and packaged right here in Sitka. We are constantly looking at ways to eliminate waste from our fish processing. For example, our burger products are made using salmon meat that the majority of processors throw out. We donate the remaining fish carcasses to our local bear rehabilitation center.
