Company Facts

About Sitka Seafood Market

Sitka Seafood Market is a member-based, direct-to-consumer seafood company. It delivers wild-caught seafood to households across the lower 48 — primarily from small-boat fishermen in Southeast Alaska and other Alaska fishing communities, along with select U.S. fisheries that meet the company's 9-point sourcing standards. Every catch is blast-frozen quickly after harvest and is traceable to the source. 

History

Sitka Seafood Market was founded in 2012 in Sitka, Alaska by Marsh Skeele and Nic Mink. Originally named Sitka Salmon Shares, the company focused on wild Alaska salmon. As it expanded to offer halibut, sablefish (black cod), spot shrimp, Dungeness crab, and other species, it took the name Sitka Seafood Market in 2023.

Sourcing

Most of Sitka Seafood Market's seafood is harvested in Alaska. The company also partners with a small number of other U.S. fisheries, each thoroughly vetted against its 9-point sourcing standards before any fish is offered to members.
