Pacific Seafood, the US seafood provider, and Ocean Beauty Seafoods, have merged their distribution businesses to leverage the growing demand for high-quality seafood products. The transaction, which closed effective 13th July 2026, includes Ocean Beauty’s distribution operations in Astoria and Portland, Oregon; Boise, Idaho; Dallas, Texas; Helena, Montana; and Renton, Washington. However Ocean Beauty’s Salt Lake City distribution facility was not part of the transaction at the time of closing.
According to the companies, Ocean Beauty’s distribution operations will remain focused on serving customers with reliability and consistency, while gaining access to Pacific Seafood’s broader resources and network. The merger supports Pacific Seafood’s continued expansion further east and advances its long-term growth strategy, including its Mission 31 initiative.
Commenting on the merger, Frank Dulcich, president and ceo of Pacific Seafood, stated: “We are excited to bring our teams together by combining the best of both our respective companies, which will make us stronger and better together to serve our valued customers, our communities in which we serve, and our joint teams and their families”.
