Gindara is a partnership for community. The Kyuquot/Checleset First Nation granted permission to operate in its territory 20 years ago. Recognizing and ensuring the environmental stewardship of its territory, Gindara has become the largest employer in the Kyuquot/Checleset community. Not just providing a job, but an opportunity for the future of its people, within their traditional territory.
Cultured on the West Coast of Canada, Gindara's pristine ocean currents are not influenced by the use of antibiotics or other chemicals. Gindara Sablefish is native to its environment and live in very low densities in harmony with nature, not bringing excess or pressure to its balance.
Gindara is 20 years of passion for Sablefish in the environment. Gindara Sablefish prefer to spend their lives in deepwater, away from parasites like sea-lice. Deep fjords provide powerful currents to exchange nutrients and oxygen. Egg to plate traceability ensure Gindara Sablefish adheres to the Green Rated production methods of the Seafood Watch program for sustainable seafood.

Well, the Kingklip of the Gulf of Mexico and Southern Atlantic is actually a Bearded Brotula, but that name won't sell specials. So Kingklip emerged the same way Orange Roughy replaced Slimehead. The Brotula is family of its own with a flavor and texture that is extremely similar to Grouper. Often called "Poor Man's Grouper", the Kingklip is a fish that inhabits great depths and often packs on "fat" to regulate body temperature. As we know, this is a great asset to food fish. A rich diet of crustacean, mollusks, and other invertebrates give the Kingklip a sweetness that is often lacking in species that feed primarily on other fish. Kingklip is a diverse ingredient that lends itself to a multitude of preparations. Its close textural comparison to Grouper, and even larger Snapper, allows many of the most popular applications to easily transpose onto the use of Kingklip.
