Monterey Fish Market does its best to bring its customers the freshest seafood, captured and handled with care and respect.

The company welcomes periodic inspection by the FDA, state, and local health services. The company is HACCP compliant, meaning it complies with a strict set of regulations implemented by the federal government to ensure the wholesomeness of the seafood it provides.

All the company’s shellfish comes from certified waters that are tested by the appropriate state and local health agencies weekly.
Monterey Fish Market employees are involved in all facets of the seafood industry. Employees work at being involved in the consulting, writing, speaking, and education for seafood issues.
