At Island Wild Seafoods, we take great pride in the quality of the products we offer. All the fish we sell is 100% natural, and we use no preservatives. We do not believe in using carbon monoxide (also called “gassing” or “gassed fish”) or so-called “tasteless smoke” – a common practice to artificially heighten the color and mask the sometimes dangerously poor quality of seafood products. The processes we use make it completely unnecessary to use this deplorable practice.

Upon being caught by our vessels all the fish are immediately cleaned and bled, then taken into the processing area, filleted and vacuum-packed, and finished by placing them in platefreezers.

Once frozen to -50°, they are boxed and stored in our fish-holds. By freezing the fish so quickly, and at such a low temperature, the freshness is locked in before the fish can age at all. Once thawed our fish is as fresh as the day it was caught, making it even fresher than a so-called “fresh” product that has been on ice for up to three weeks.

Caught by longline on our own vessels (the F/V Rachel and the F/V Golden Sable), Island Wild Seafoods are obtained under limited entry permits in Hawaii and the islands of American Samoa. Ours is the highest-rated fishery of any in the world at this time by the standard set forth by the United Nations for sustainable fishery practices. We are also monitored by National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) observers to make sure we stick to quotas and keep up the practices we have initiated to help avoid interactions with sea turtles and birds.

All of the fish we sell at IWS is caught only by our own HACCP-approved vessels and handled in our HACCP-approved facility in Toledo, Oregon. By doing this, we are able to monitor the quality of the fish we produce from the moment it comes from the pristine waters of the Pacific Ocean until it reaches your plate.
