Fishermen’s Finest is a member of the following organizations as part of our commitment to sustainable and quality fishing.

  • The MSC blue fish label is an ecolabel that can be found on seafood products and alongside seafood items on menus. It helps consumers identify seafood that is certified sustainable, wild-caught, and traceable to a sustainable source. The MSC blue fish label can only be applied to wild-caught fish or seafood from a fishery that has been independently assessed on its impacts on wild fish populations and the ecosystems they're part of.

  • The Alaska Seafood Marketing Institute (ASMI) is a public-private partnership between the State of Alaska and the Alaska seafood industry established to foster economic development of a renewable natural resource. ASMI plays a key role in the positioning of Alaska’s seafood industry as a competitive market-driven food production industry.

  • The major producers of Alaska flatfish formed a new non-profit marketing organization, the Wild Alaska Sole Association (WASA), with the goal of increasing the awareness, appreciation, and value of Wild Alaska Sole in domestic and international markets.

  • Formed in 2008, the Alaska Seafood Cooperative (AKSC) is a group of catcher processor vessels working to improve the management of Bering Sea flatfish and other non-pollock groundfish fisheries. The companies represented include Fishermen’s Finest, Inc., North Star Fishing Co, Ocean Peace, O’Hara Corporation and United States Seafoods.
