Securing the highest seafood quality requires not just years, but decades of buying experience – especially with a commitment to protecting our natural resources. So, we do not wait for the best quality to find its way to us, we go to the fish, at its source.

Chesapeake Fish Wholesale’s procurement specialists travel the world, meeting with new suppliers and reviewing both their facilities and methods of operation. Once we’re assured that all of our rigorous quality standards have been met, we consider purchasing product – insisting on the best quality at a competitive price. This is an on-going review process required of all of our approved suppliers.

The result is that you can rely on ready access to not just a vast array of seafood options, but also only the freshest most wholesome products. This assurance includes careful quality control inspection of every item received through our doors. We strive to meet the levels of excellence and value our customers expect of us. That means we’re never afraid to reject product that fails to meet our detailed specifications.

The Chesapeake sourcing advantage is simple: Thanks to the many strong partnerships Santa Monica Seafood has created with its suppliers over the years, we take the guesswork out accessing great seafood.
