About The Co-op
Seafood Producers Cooperative (SPC) is owned by fishermen who fish the waters of Southeast Alaska. Each member is a small boat fisherman and owner of the cooperative, and therefore receives the benefits of ownership. The cooperative was founded on pride in ownership and is meant to serve fishermen by getting the fairest price for their catch and giving them access to processing and packaging that they wouldn’t be able to achieve working on their own. When you get fish from a fishermen’s co-op, you get the fish from a fisherman. With the co-op, you can depend on consistent product availability with the highest standards. What started in 1944 as a cooperative to provide halibut liver oil to vitamin companies has become a full-fledged organization that provides premium-quality wild salmon, halibut, sablefish (black cod), and more to high-end food service and retail industries around the world. The co-op’s main processing plant is in Sitka, Alaska.
SPC’s Mission: We represent small boats, independent fishermen, and co-op values. With great pride in our company, our communities, and every fish we touch, we are committed to producing the finest quality seafood.
We are thrilled to partner with SPC to bring this delicious, hook-and-line caught King Salmon to our customers.
About King Salmon
Chinook (King) Salmon is one of the most sought after species of salmon in the Pacific Northwest. It’s known for its rich and buttery taste, but firm texture, making it the ideal entre candidate for hosting. The story behind the remarkable king is similar to other salmon species - it begins in freshwater such as streams, goes out to the ocean during the major growth of its life, but returns back to the same freshwater it was born in. King salmon are also known for being the largest of salmon species.
