Silver Bay Seafoods is an integrated processor of frozen, headed and gutted salmon for domestic and export markets. We began in 2007 as a single salmon processing facility in Sitka, Alaska. Today, Silver Bay is one of the largest seafoods companies in Alaska, operating five domestic processing facilities throughout Alaska and the West Coast. Our Alaska operations include Craig, Ketchikan, Kodiak, False Pass, Naknek, Sitka and Valdez.
Silver Bay's primary strength is in its combination of having a state of the art processing plant and favorable logistics to support its operations; competent management and key personnel; an established fish buying system; and ownership by fishermen who represent over 80% of the committed fishing effort.
Through sound management, innovation, teamwork and vision, provide member fishermen and other strategic partners with the “Silver Bay experience” that is predicated on exceptional and unparalleled performance that is second to none; simultaneously promoting the growth and sustained profitability of the company.
Silver Bay Seafoods was born from the passion of hard working and dedicated fishers, many of which have been very successful. Collectively, they believe in the dream that there is always a better option for their fishing efforts.
The company is molded to fit that vision. While salmon and herring production has been the primary focus during its first four years, Silver Bay will continue to explore areas where we will be able to offer more value-added products to our swiftly growing customer base.
