Copper River salmon is here!


The first fresh sockeye salmon of the season is here. 7 Seas is now featuring fresh air flown World Famous Copper River Sockeye. Hurry, because it will be gone in a few weeks.

Why all the fuss? What makes this fish world famous? Copper River Sockeye Salmon is caught in the waters of the Copper River Delta near the town of Cordova, Alaska. The river is a long river, forcing the Copper River Salmon to store large amounts of fat in order survive their long journey to the spawning grounds. It is this fat that gives the fish its rich flavour and it is the fat that is high in omega-3 oils making Copper River Sockeye Salmon a healthy addition to any diet.

Seasons Greetings

As 2010 draws to a close, we look back at a successful year full of exciting events. For us here on the West Coast, 2010 was the year of the highly successful 2010
Winter Olympic Games and the record breaking Fraser River Sockeye run.

For 7 Seas, 2010 was the year where sourcing sustainable seafood became a major priority. We continue to identify and offer sustainable products that are attractive
to consumers while supporting healthier oceans.

From our 7 Seas family to all of our valued vendors and customers, we wish you all a very happy holiday season and a prosperous and sustainable 2011.
