Alcatraz Seafoods® Makes Generous Donation On National Hunger Awareness Day.

Santa Rosa, CA -- June 05, 2007 -- Alcatraz Seafoods®

has made a generous donation of canned gourmet low mercury Tuna to the Redwood Empire Food Bank on National Hunger Awareness Day. At inception, Alcatraz Seafoods® made a promise to their customers "to be a different kind of seafood company" by offering only all-natural, ocean sustainable seafood.

"We heard about the problem of food banks around the country increasingly drying up." "But", lamented Lucas, "we never imagined the amount of people they regularly served here in the North Bay."

Don Lindsey, of the Redwood Empire Food Bank states that the Redwood Empire Food Bank regularly services upwards of forty thousand households in the area either directly or indirect though other pantry providers.

According to Darin Lucas, one of the founders of Alcatraz Seafoods®, "often, the very best business strategy is simply doing what is right for the community." "And giving something back rather than looking to take has its own rewards in the long-run." "We know our gift of canned tuna will not go far enough, but if more people take the time to think and find it in themselves to give a little whenever possible, perhaps, just perhaps someday we won’t need food banks at all." Says Lucas.

North Coast Fisheries, Inc. Offers Cypress Island™, The Only Farm Raised Salmon Sold In America That Has Been Endorsed As Sustainable.

Santa Rosa, CA -- June 06, 2007 -- Fulfilling increasing demands from both retailers and consumers, North Coast Fisheries, Inc. has selected Cypress Island™ as their premier supplier of farm raised salmon. Cypress Island™ is the only farm raised salmon sold in America that has been endorsed as sustainable by a non profit organization, the "Sustainable Seafood Forum" attached to the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach California.

"We already buy and distribute approximately one-fifth of all Wild King Salmon landed in California." States Michael Lucas, President of North Coast Fisheries, Inc. "But", says Lucas, "we have a heavy demand for fresh salmon year ‘round so during the off season we need a quality alternative to our Wild Kings." "We believe in the sustainable practices of this firm and will support Cypress Island™ with efforts to move these high quality farmed salmon through our distribution channels." Explains Lucas.

Cypress Island™ "Raised in the wilds of the Pacific Northwest" American Salmon is tested frequently to assure quality. Not only does Cypress Island™ test regularly for healthy fish, fish feeds and nutrition, but goes many steps beyond by assuring over crowding doesn’t occur at any time in their pens. "We test four times a year and post the results with our customers." "This way we can catch a problem before there is one, plus build confidence with our customers showing that our product is ahead of the curve." States Brin Taylor, Marketing Manager Cypress Island™.

According to Michael Lucas, the President of North Coast Fisheries, Inc. "the sustainable farm raised salmon offered by Cypress Island™ and distributed though our channels have been well received by our customers."

Alcatraz Seafoods Launches All Natural Seafood Line.

Santa Rosa, CA -- January 11, 2007 -- Fulfilling increasing demands from both retailers and consumers, Alcatraz Seafoods has launched an entire line of ocean sustainable, all-natural seafood products.


"In the increasingly competitive seafood business we knew we had to do it better for our business to be a success. "But", lamented Lucas, "We never imagined the amount of fanfare and enthusiasm a line of preservative-free, ready-to-serve seafood products would receive in the marketplace today."


Alcatraz Seafoods has spent thousands of dollars, endless man-hours and over two years to develop their new line. Last year, they launched what was the first Pasteurized Dungeness Crabmeat at the International West Coast Seafood Show held in Los Angeles, California. What was seen as a great "risk" was immediately picked up and distributed by Tony's Fine Foods of Sacramento, California as well as other distributors nation-wide.

But the innovations didn't end with Pasteurized Crabmeat. This year Alcatraz Seafoods will introduce fourteen all-natural, preservative-free seafood products at the Fancy Food Show in San Francisco. A new market has been established by the recent re-tooling of many of the nation's grocers offering an increasing amount of natural and ocean sustainable seafood products. The new line of products from Alcatraz Seafoods was developed to fill a much needed "hole" in that marketplace.


According to Darin Lucas, one of the founders of Alcatraz Seafoods, "Often, the very best marketing strategy is simply listening to what customers ask for. We're not here to "sell" a customer on what we have, but rather supply them with what they want."
