Company description

We're a small, expanding team that cares deeply about sustainability, good food and personal growth. We rely on the systems we build to deliver a high-quality, personal experience to our members throughout the U.S. You can catch us in Alaska, New York and everywhere in between -- and sometimes beyond. We value independence, hard and thoughtful work, diversity in approach, backgrounds and ideas, as well as the willingness to learn.We are a supply-driven, monthly seafood program. Our membership model allows us to gauge roughly how much fish to consistently procure. This approach aligns with our commitment to sustainability and ensures the highest quality service for our community. So in that sense, we're much different than your typical fishmonger or grocery store.
