Quiet now. It won't be for long.

Pumps tested, ice tanks full, freezers blasting, crew standing by. 2026, let's go.

New Seasons and Winco...One premium, One value — and that's the point. Circle ULT® Pink and Keta Salmon deliver both.

Circle Wild Alaska Pink and Keta salmon are coming to PNW shelves at New Seasons Market and WinCo Foods just in time for the 4th of July — our first Pacific Northwest launch built around these two species specifically.

In most of the country, people walk up and buy salmon. In the Northwest, shoppers know their fish — and for years that knowledge has carried a hierarchy that puts Pink and Keta at the bottom. We think that ranking is out of date.

Pink and Keta have fed families and built fishing communities for generations. Bringing them to the Northwest — on their own merits, at a fair price — is exactly the future of wild seafood we are building.

Find them now:
• New Seasons Market — Pink & Keta in store and online via Instacart
• WinCo Foods — Keta in store

Circle I arrived in Metlakatla, Alaska on June 13, 2026. Fleet, Production, Maintanence and Engineering team members are onsite and busy preparing for the start of a productive Alaska salmon season.

The largest floating freezer in the world is on the water right now — and she hits the Southeast Alaska grounds tomorrow.

Biggest. Most efficient. Coldest.

No tender tax — a premium price, above the noise. Super-frozen whole round means no bottlenecks, so you're back on the water and fishing within 40 minutes, with your catch locked in at its peak.

Highliner used to mean the most fish. With Circle, it means the most money. Want to be The Highest Earner?

We're building the fleet for 2026.

Circling Year 3. We've learned a few things. One of them: start the season with a clean deck. Aberdeen → Alaska. Let's go.

She's higher capacity, colder, and more reliable than the one we sent up in 2025. Which was better than 2024.

That's the whole bet: every season, get better. Deliver more value to fishermen, team members and customers. Move fish faster. Lose less quality between net and plate. The wild salmon industry has been doing things roughly the same way for half a century. We don't think that's a strength. Every upgrade is a risk someone has to underwrite. That risk only pays off because other people make it with us.

To the crew making the boats and barges work, the fishermen choosing us over the cannery they've always sold to, and the buyers putting Circle super frozen pink and chum on shelves where other products used to live — thank you.

We're not done getting better.

Season 2026, here we come.

Let’s play “Name that Species!” The first person to comment the correct salmon types in these 6 photos gets a free Circle Seafoods hat 🙌

We’ll start off a little easy with the first two photos. Then we’ll make it harder with the next two fillet photos. The last two photos are a bit of a breeze for our salmon connoisseurs 🍣

Btw, these salmon were all ULT frozen whole round by Circle in July 2025 and thawed just for this photoshoot a few weeks ago.
