Playing Our Part
We give you our promise
Our Commitment to the Environment
Our commitment to environment goes far beyond seafood. In addition to the efforts we make in sourcing sustainable and responsibly-produced seafood, we are doing even more for the environment as part of our business practices. Our management and staff are dedicated to finding additional ways to reduce our impact on the global environment. Here are some examples:
Innovative Product Packaging
One of our most significant achievements has been to design new packaging to replace heavily waxed cardboard boxes often used to transport seafood. Our Tasty Catch® box is completely recyclable so it can be turned into new boxes at the end of its use. We even designed it with a special closure to eliminate the use of tape, which is often not recyclable.
General Recycling
Our offices and plants all participate in the recycling of cardboard, glass, metals and paper to reduce waste as much as possible.
Sustainability
Styrofoam Recycling
We have created an innovative way to recycle 100% of the Styrofoam that enters our plants. We also recycle all incoming waxed cardboard boxes.
Vehicle Emissions
Our trucks comply with current California emissions standards, which are the strictest in the nation.
