About

A Hawaii Seafood
Company, Here
Since 1977

Fresh Island Fish is a seafood distributor and fish processor based in Honolulu. We supply restaurants, markets, and food service businesses across Hawaii with locally caught fish — ahi, marlin, ono, opah, and more. We've been doing this for nearly 50 years.
Who We Are

Fishing, Processing, and Distribution — Under One Roof

Fresh Island Fish owns and operates commercial longline vessels, runs a fish processing facility at Pier 38, and distributes fresh, locally caught seafood to restaurants, hotels, and food service businesses across the islands. The operation covers fishing, processing, and delivery — all in Hawaii, all connected.
Because we're involved at each stage, we have a clear picture of where our fish comes from and how it's been handled. For the customers we work with, that means they can ask those questions and get straight answers.

We Own Our Fishing Vessels

Fresh Island Fish owns and operates commercial longline vessels — so we're involved in how the fish is caught and landed, not just what happens once it arrives at the facility.

Processing at Pier 38

Our Pier 38 facility processes fish the same day it's landed — with the capacity, certifications, and team to serve customers reliably and consistently.

Locally Owned Since 1977

We're a Hawaii company with nearly five decades here. Ownership is local, decisions are made locally, and our ties to this community are real and long-standing.
Our Story

Fresh Island Fish Crafted To Feel Authentic, Local, and Premium

Early mornings on the water, learning the rhythms of the tides, and respecting what the ocean provides shaped everything we do today. We saw firsthand how quality depends on care: how fish handled properly, sourced responsibly, and delivered quickly makes all the difference.
That's why Fresh Island Fish exists—to bring that same just-caught experience directly to your table. We work closely with local fishermen who share our commitment to sustainability and quality. Every catch is selected with intention, handled with care, and delivered fresh—never compromised.
“Growing up in the islands, fishing wasn’t just a pastime—it was a way of life.”
What We Stand For

Island Roots

Every catch is selected with intention and delivered fresh—never frozen, never rushed.

Sustainable Sourcing

Partnering with local fishermen who share our commitment to responsible harvesting.
When you choose Fresh Island Fish, you're becoming part of a tradition rooted in respect, quality, and island pride.
Our Companies

Part of a Broader Hawaii Community

Alongside our seafood operation, we're connected to a small group of independently run Hawaii businesses — a fish market, a recreational fishing outfitter, and a few community restaurants.
