Alaska General Seafoods

Description

We quick freeze our salmon to preserve their quality. Some customers have been purchasing our first rate frozen salmon for over 10 years. Our rigorous quality control measures have fostered an international loyalty to our frozen brands: AGS, Canfisco and Queen Charlotte.

The company began as Nelbro Packing Company which was founded in 1961 by the Nelson brothers, long time residents of Vancouver, B.C. Canada. The origins of the company were in the Coleman Building in downtown Seattle and a plant located in Naknek, Alaska. The plant at that time consisted of a barge tied to a dock where fish were hand butchered and canned on one of two canning lines. The people that fished at that time used small power boats and gillnets to catch and transport the salmon.

Housing & Meals: AGS does offer their employees a place to stay and provides meals (Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner). Housing is dormitory style (2 persons per room). Each room is furnished with a desk, and place to hang clothing. We provide washers, dryers and shower facilities.
