 EcoFish Wild Alaskan Salmon are caught by local family fishers, either troll caught (on hook-and-line) or gillnet caught. We chose Alaskan salmon because they are abundant, their habitat is intact and the fishery is extremely well managed. State biologists count salmon as they migrate up their natal river, and don't open the fishery until enough salmon escape up river to spawn and create a healthy population for future years. Salmon that return to rivers in Alaska are abundant because the rivers are clean and healthy and able to sustain salmon eggs and young salmon.

 Our Wild Alaskan Cod (Gadus macrocephalus) is from the fixed gear (pot or line-caught) fishery, which eliminates the issues of habitat destruction in most cod fisheries from bottom trawling gear. The fishery is closely monitored by the state, and like so many others in Alaska, is regulated by a series of "openings" throughout the year, with painstaking attention paid to the landings to assure the future of both the species and the fishery.

 Organic certified since 2007, EcoFish’s aquaculture partner for sustainable shrimp production is located in Ecuador. Family owned and operated, this farm holds three prestigious European organic certifications. They are also Best Aquaculture Practices (BAP) certified, highlighting their commitment to sustainable shrimp production. The shrimp are stocked in low densities, therefore not requiring antibiotics, and are not fed any growth hormones, unlike conventionally factory farmed shrimp. They are feed a natural diet which includes protein derived from offcuts from local fish processors.

 EcoFish Albacore Tuna come from family fishers in the Pacific Northwest troll fishery (hook-and-line). Due to the selective nature of troll gear, the otherwise common bycatch (catching of untargeted species) of dolphins and turtles is not an issue. These Albacore are abundant because they are prolific breeders, fast growing and wide-ranging.

 Our Sablefish (Anoplopoma Fimbria) is also commonly called Black Cod, or Alaskan Butterfish. Biologically, it's closest relative is the Patagonian Toothfish (a.k.a. Chilean Seabass). Sablefish is sourced through deepwater longlines off of the Alaskan coast, and is very strictly managed with a season that mirrors the halibut fishery.
