Description
In 1957, fisherman Tom Savidge and his wife Marie built a backyard smokehouse and began selling smoked wild salmon to local taverns in his home of Anacortes, Washington. With that Specialty Seafoods was born (later renamed SeaBear after Native American legend). The tavern owners and their patrons loved Tom’s smoked salmon, but asked him to find a way to preserve it longer. Being an inventive guy, Tom took their challenge and created a whole new idea in packaging… the Gold Seal pouch, for which he received a patent. The Gold Seal pouch preserves the salmon naturally, and no refrigeration is required until the pouch is opened. This breakthrough in packaging, since it requires no refrigeration, made it easy for tourists traveling through Anacortes on the way to Washington’s San Juan Islands to take Tom’s salmon back home with them, or to ship it to family and friends in different parts of the country. From this, word spread about our smoked wild salmon. Today at SeaBear, we ship our wild salmon products to customers in all 50 states. We remain dedicated to the same principles upon which Tom and Marie Savidge founded our company decades ago: making great food people love; taking an inventive approach to all that we do; and always listening to our customers. Our Smokehouse is proud to have a tradition of award winning quality and to have often been recognized through write-ups in various publications. We stand behind the quality of every SeaBear salmon with our unconditional Fisherman's Oath guarantee. If you are ever in our part of the world please stop for a tour of a smokehouse, it's fun, delicious and free! |
