Dreamers on the High Seas: SeaKing by Superb Catch, Inc. Celebrates 20 Years of Smooth Sailings with New Product Offerings

"All our dreams can come true if we have the courage to pursue them."


Walt Disney's memorable quote continues to drive Superb Catch, Inc. and their flagship brand, SeaKing, to reach ever higher in their quest to provide the very best fresh seafood products in the country.
