Nautifish Pulls out the Checkbook

Well we hit a milestone this past week as Nautifish pulled out the checkbook. As we have made commitment to Massachusetts- based Ocean Alliance and their mission, a check for $1608.01 was presented to Jeffrey Kunz, of Ocean Alliance on July 16, 2009.  This is the first quarterly check that will be provided to Ocean Alliance as part of the proceeds from the sale of the Nautifish line of seafood. 

For every pound of Nautifish sold, we will donate money to this fine organization. The sustainability issues that Ocean Alliance is focused on are a big part of the overall brand of Nautifish and many customers already are embracing the brand and it’s second mission. More about the brand can be found on our YouTube site at; http://www.youtube.com/agarsuma

Currently Ocean Alliance is renovating the Paint Factory in Gloucester, partially funded by grants for clean up from the EPA as well as private funding and other grants.  A capital campaign is underway and their operation will function out of this factory when it is complete.  You can find out more about this great organization on their website. www.oceanalliance.org. As a wholesale food distributor near Boston, we have made a commitment both here in Massachusetts and with Ocean Alliance who is well-known across the country for their great work.

As you can see from the photo, Nautifish was on hand for the ceremony as was Gary Lanoue our seafood category manager. Mr. Kunz came down to take a brief tour of the facility and spend some time with Nautifish.
