Seattle Fish Co.
Seafood supplier
Denver
Each year, Seattle Fish Co. receives and processes more than 7.5 million pounds of seafood in its Denver facility, and supplies Whole Foods, King Soopers, Panzano, Marczyk Fine Foods and others. The family-owned business earned certification from the Marine Stewardship Council, an eco-labeling organization that ensures seafood is traced back to a sustainable fishery. It installed a fluorescent lighting system with motion sensors, a 102.9-kilowatt solar array, and a water reclamation system that saved over 700,000 gallons in its first year. The company is a founding member of Sea Pact, a sustainable seafood alliance that funds fishery improvement projects. seattlefish.com
