Hawaii's Market is unique; boats fishing local waters bring their bounty in to be offloaded into Hawaii's auction, "United Fishing Agency Auction." Hawaiian auction bidders know their favorite boats, handling practices and ordering days. Each buyer takes their prized winning bid back to the plant each day and grades it for national distribution next day.

The King Salmon species makes up less than 0.5% of the global Salmon population, yet is regarded by many as the pinnacle Salmon species. King Salmon boast bright silver skin. They have a rounder mid-section in comparison to the longer, thinner body of the common Atlantic Salmon species, resulting in a generous fillet. King Salmon have a bright, vibrant orange flesh colour, which contrasts attractively with the marbled fat lines for unsurpassed plate appeal. King Salmon are naturally high in healthy Omega-3s – up to twice that found in Atlantic Salmon. This also greatly reduces the risk of over-cooking as the higher oil content keeps the Salmon moist.
