Custom Processing

Your Alaska Fish - as fresh as the day you caught it!

Commercial Quality Custom Fish Processing

 

High quality processing ensures the longevity and freshness of your catch.  When your fish arrive at Homer Fish Processing they are promptly cleaned, vacuum sealed, and frozen at -40 F.  This process preserves the condition of your fish so they will taste the same coming out of your freezer as they do coming fresh out of the water.  Our state of the art facility and knowledgeable staff can accomodate any custom processing needs you may have.

Seafood Boxes:

Airplane approved or Fed Ex shipping boxes. We use seafood industry approved boxes made of waxed impregnated, multi-walled, fiberboard/cardboard that surrounds an additional one inch Styrofoam insulated liner to enhance container integrity and increase insulation value. Our seafood boxes have been tested by delivery services for holding temperatures and meet airline and air freight requirements.

 

Box Prices:

Large (50# of filleted fish) $22.00

Medium (25# of filleted fish) $20.00

Small (15# of filleted fish) $15.00 Gel Packs $2.00 each*

*Gel ice packs are added to maintain a low temperature during transit.

Seafood industry standards recommend using at least one one-pound frozen gel ice pack per 25 pounds of fish.

 

How do I get my fish home?

 

Fed Ex:

To ensure your fish arrives as fresh as the day you caught it, we ship exclusively using Federal Express Overnight Delivery. Your catch is processed, frozen, boxed and stored at 20 degrees below zero until the shipping date of your choice.

 

As Checked Luggage:

For customers who plan to take their boxed fish with them as checked baggage, our custom packing ensures your container will not exceed specifications. The airlines currently allows 2-50# boxes checked as luggage. You would need to carry on your personal luggage.
