We
will be glad to ship
you a twentypound box (or increments of 20 lbs.) of sockeye salmon to any
destination you choose. Our price is simply $7.00 per pound including actual
shipping charges, for headed and cleaned sockeye salmon. These fish usually
average 5 to 6 pounds, dressed and cleaned weight, so you will receive about
4 or 5 fish to a box. Think about that next family reunion, that backyard
barbecue with friends, the company picnic or a delicious main entree for your
upcoming wedding reception! If you are a true salmon lover, you can simply
hit your freezer any time of the year for the great taste of Alaskan Sockeye
salmon!
Brief History
The original facility, which is today the site of Pacific Star Seafoods, was
erected soon after the turn of the century and operated as a family run
saltery near the mouth of the Kenai River. Enough salted, preserved salmon
was prepared each year to ensure a steady diet of fish during the winter for
the early pioneer families living in and around nearby Kenai, Alaska.
In 1946 the first cannery was built on the site. In 1950 the plant was named
the Kenai Salmon Packing Company, a.k.a. Kenai Packers. The Kenai Packers
name stood for the best in salmon products for the next forty-four years
until May of 1994 when Pacific Star Seafoods, Inc. purchased the facility and
has maintained the same high quality operation ever since.
