A Successful & Sustainable Seafood Business for Over 40 Years

Today I'm speaking with Christian Limberg, President of Harbor Seafood. Christian is as much of an advocate of seafood as he is of people. From the fishermen to their customers, Harbor Seafood has a built a successful and sustainable business that's grown over 4 decades.

Head to https://bigfoodtalk.com/harbor-seafood to see their truly inspiring videos about their company, processes and employees that not only depicts the fisherman but how they hired over 100 hearing impaired employees since 2010.

Heart, Passion & Resilience

When I asked Christian about challenges his company has faced over the past 25 years since he joined Harbor Seafood he immediately talks about his staff and the people behind the work. Most of us who are consumers take for granted how our lobster, crab or other delights of the sea make it to our restaurants and on our tables. How many logistical nightmares had to be worked out before you could enjoy the freshest seafood you've ever had?

People who love the food business have a true passion for what they do. It's only the way to endure such trials and tribulations on a daily basis. When it comes to seafood you can't quite and you need to continuously evolve especially with the changes businesses like Harbor Seafood are facing since the pandemic.

Christian believes everyone should take some time to work in the food business to learn life lessons you'll forever carry with you through the people and interactions you'll have.

Protecting Our Resources

If you think about sustainable fishing practices it's not about the now, it's about the future. As Christian put it, following the protocols for sustainable fishing practices is so generations from now can enjoy the same quality and abundance of seafood we have today. Seafood is not an infinite resource and luckily there are many organizations advocating for sustainable fishing practices. Christian also points how important traceability is in the industry.
