Fish raised by deep-water, offshore aquaculture innovator, Forever Oceans, is now available at restaurants coast to coast. The placements coincide with the company’s first commercial harvests off the west coast of Panama. “We’re thrilled by the reception we’ve received from chefs and restaurateurs, and are so proud to be showcased at a growing number of fantastic restaurants on both coasts,” said Forever Oceans CEO, Bill Bien. “We’ve long known about the versatility and quality of our fish and how it performs both raw and cooked and with a broad range of cuisines and flavors. Seeing how a variety of world-class chefs are now working with Forever Oceans Kanpachi really brings its attributes to life.”
In California, Forever Oceans Kanpachi is being featured in several menu items—including sushi tacos and Fresh Catch entrees—at all 13 locations of Pacific Catch, a West Coast fish house that prioritizes sustainability and features innovative, bold seafood preparations. The restaurant has a presence in both Southern and Northern California, with locations in Cupertino, Mountain View, Palo Alto, Santa Clara, San Francisco and San Diego among others.

“We are excited to partner with Forever Oceans to bring their delicious ethically raised, sustainable fish to our guests,” said Tom Hanson, Chief Operating Officer & President of Pacific Catch. “This partnership highlights Pacific Catch’s commitment to working with best and most ethical seafood suppliers to ensure our Guests can feel great about their choice to dine with us.”
On the East Coast, Forever Oceans is working distribution partner ProFish and quickly gaining menu placements among notable restaurants throughout the greater Washington D.C. region. Forever Oceans Kanpachi can now be found at the one-Michelin-star restaurant Gravitas and the 14th Street, modern Mexican hot spot, Maiz64, owned by Oaxacan-born chef Alam Mendez.
“The people at Forever Oceans have put forth a fantastic product that is delicious to eat, has a great presentation, and is healthy for both the consumer and the environment,” said V. Glenn Casten III, a Fishmonger at Washington D.C.-based ProFish, one of the distributors that committed early to purchasing fish from Forever Oceans’ first harvests. “We at ProFish are excited to partner with Forever Oceans in bringing their Kanpachi to the discerning clients we serve. The reception so far has been very enthusiastic.”
