The following message comes from the desk of Joe Bundrant, CEO of Trident Seafoods, at the start of the Lenten season
As the season of Lent begins, I want to take a moment to acknowledge everyone who plays a part in bringing wild Alaska seafood to tables around the world. For those who observe, Lent is a time of reflection and renewal. For all of us at Trident, it marks one of the busiest and most meaningful seasons of the year.
To every member of the Trident family - whether you’re harvesting at sea, processing in Alaska, supporting our operations, or partnering with us as a customer - thank you.
Gratitude For Our People
Our work is only possible because of the dedication of our fishermen, employees, customers, suppliers, communities, and partners in Alaska, the U.S., and beyond. Your resilience and teamwork ensure that wild-caught, sustainable seafood reaches customers who depend on us throughout this important season.
Even in a challenging industry environment, your commitment allows Trident to continue living its mission of responsibly sharing wild Alaska seafood with the world.
Looking Ahead With Focus and Determination
The months ahead will require continued focus, speed, and collaboration. We have ambitious goals this year, and achieving them will take all of us working together and prioritizing what truly drives impact. It won’t always be easy, but we have every confidence in our people and in the shared values that guide our work.
Respect for Our Fishermen and Coastal Communities
As we enter this season, we also recognize the crews currently fishing in the icy waters of the Bering Sea and the Gulf of Alaska. Their grit and bravery fuel everything we do. We keep them, and all who work on the water, in our thoughts and prayers for a safe and successful season.
In closing, to every member of the Trident family - whether you’re harvesting at sea, processing in Alaska, supporting our operations, or partnering with us as a customer - thank you. Your hard work and dedication are the heart of our company.
I wish you a peaceful Lenten season and a safe, fulfilling year ahead.
- Joe Bundrant, CEO of Trident Seafoods
