Pacific Seafood

This National Oyster Day we're celebrating six years since our oysters became 4-star BAP certified - the highest standards of aquaculture practices. BAP or Best Aquaculture Practices ensures aquaculture is done responsibly while embracing the role of responsible seafood in meeting global nutrition needs. #NationalOysterDay

Meet William St. Peter at Pacific Seafood Nespelem. From diving to mending nets, it seems he's done it all at our aquaculture operation. Still, he continues to learn! At Pacific Seafood, we believe in developing our Team Members abilities to uncover all they can accomplish!

Back to school time is just around the corner! Pacific Seafood is proud to support healthy brain development for children through our Coast to Kids initiative! Coast to Kids launched in 2023 with the commitment to supply schools with healthier school lunch options through seafood.

Pacific Seafood is dedicated to supporting the entire aquaculture industry. Miranda Ries, Director of Regulatory Affairs - Aquaculture Division explains how we work together with other oyster farmers and harvesters to support the industry as a whole.

Team Blue is Pacific Seafood's program aimed at developing the leadership skills of our Team Members! This past quarter, 13 Pacific Seafood Team Members graduated from the program, allowing our company more opportunities to promote from within!

Pacific Seafood prides itself on quality from the start. Pacific Seafood's Value Quality Creation Manager, Ben Bork explains how our South Bend team monitors oyster quality throughout the entire harvest and production process, resulting in the best product.

We are proud to support the Seafood Nutrition Partnership's event to promote seafood for brain health!

Pacific Seafood believes in investing in the development of our team members, like Melissa Moua who will graduate in just one year with her bachelor's degree in Human Resource Management from the University of Arizona's Global Campus. Melissa started her journey with Pacific Seafood three years ago, working in production. In April, she was promoted to HR Coordinator while pursuing her degree! Melissa loved the flexibility the University of Arizona's Global Campus offered, especially after welcoming her son into the world. Congratulations, Melissa on all your accomplishments! You make us Proudly Pacific!

We want to thank our Pacific Seafood team members who helped pick up 3,274.9 lbs. of debris since World Oceans Day on June 8th! Every World Oceans Day, our team members are encouraged to pick plastics and debris at a nearby water source in effort to help keep our oceans clean while showing up for the communities where we live and serve.

For the first time in history, Pacific oyster shells now line one of the most prominent bays on the East Coast. In partnership with Madison Bay Seafood and Wittman Wharf Seafood in Maryland, Pacific Seafood contributed millions of Pacific oyster shell to the Chesapeake Bay as an effort to restore the local public oyster fishery. According our partners, most Chesapeake Bay oysters are exported out of the state, meaning most shell doesn't return. Oyster shells are necessary for spawning and growing new oysters! With the new addition of Pacific oyster shells, the Chesapeake Bay will see new oyster life within 18 months. Thank you Madison Bay Seafood and Wittman Wharf Seafood for funding this effort. We look forward to seeing new oyster growth within the bay!
