Glacier Fish Company was founded by a small group of Seattle-area fishing families in 1983, and has been under the continuous management of Erik Breivik since then. The objective was to produce the highest quality of frozen-at-sea groundfish products available and to set the industry standard for harvesting and processing technology.
The company operates two catcher processor vessels, the Northern Glacier and the Pacific Glacier, and a freezer longliner, the Norton Sound.In 1998, we changed our ownership to include Norton Sound Economic Development Corporation, which is owned by 15 Alaska coastal communities and holds quotas in crab, pollock, cod and other groundfish. Our management group remains the same. This alliance allows us to maintain flexible harvest and delivery schedules and ensures stable production.
Since then, we have expanded our catching and processing capacity with the addition of the 276-foot Pacific Glacier, with a 106 person crew, all state-of-the-art Baader fillet machines and surimi processing equipment; and the Norton Sound and Glacier Bay, both freezer long liners with crews of 20 -25, that catch and process cod and other groundfish.
Over the years, we have taken a measured approach to growth, and have worked to develop responsible ways to expand our production. In 1998, we changed our ownership to include Norton Sound Economic Development Corporation, which is owned by 15 Alaska coastal communities and holds quotas in crab, pollock, cod and other groundfish.
