Whole Foods was founded in 1980 on the belief that where food comes from, and how it’s grown, matters. It meant creating quality standards, working with suppliers who achieve them, and sharing that information with our customers. And it radically changed the way people understood and shopped for food.
The result has been the highest quality natural and organic products, an unmatched experience in more than 500+ stores, with a passionate team of over 90,000 team members, 5 percent of our total net profits given back to our communities each year, and millions of customers who put their trust in us every day.
Legal Sea Foods began in 1950 as a fish market in the Inman Square neighborhood of Cambridge, Massachusetts. It’s here that the “Legal” name became synonymous with quality and freshness. In 1968, our first seafood restaurant opened, right next to the fish market. The fish was simply prepared, either broiled or fried, and served on paper plates at communal picnic tables. Despite the low-key trappings, the food was second to none and word quickly spread. This early success led to further expansion and now, six decades later with restaurants along the Eastern Seaboard, the commitment to freshness and quality endures: "If it isn't fresh, it isn't Legal!”
The Wild Alaskan Company offers an online direct-to-consumer membership service for premium wild-caught seafood. By joining our monthly seafood program, you’ll receive a box of sustainably harvested seafood every month. We source the highest quality seafood from top Alaskan and Pacific Northwest fisheries and ship it directly to your home.
If you’re like most Americans, you probably find it difficult to consistently buy premium grade seafood. Seafood fraud is running rampant in many parts of this country. In fact, a 2015 Oceana report showed that more than 40% of salmon in grocery stores and restaurants was mislabeled.
So, unless you have a trusted source, you’re likely not eating what you think you are.
With the Wild Alaskan Company, our goal is to create a fully transparent sea-to-table experience, where you always:
1. Know the source of your wild-caught, sustainably harvested seafood.
2. Have direct and regular access to a variety of wild-caught species from Alaska, which we’ll curate for you based on seasonality and availability.
Think of us as your personal fishmonger!
