We all want to eat healthy, support local, and reduce the environmental impact of our households, but after years big box store price gouging and inflation, the ability to do so feels harder than ever.“Local doesn’t always mean more expensive”, says Cory Siegner, co-owner and partner of The Fisherman’s Market, an online seafood grocery delivery service and collection of brick-and-mortar fish markets located throughout B.C.
Following the incident, The Fisherman’s Market was founded as a standalone fish market in Nelson, B.C. They have since exploded in popularity and expanded to locations in Kelowna, Kamloops, Gibsons, New Denver, West Vancouver, and a new location in Burnaby, each focusing on West Coast seafood staples like wild, B.C. halibut sockeye salmon, and other B.C. seafoods which make up about 80% of their business.
Bringing their commercial fishing ethos to their new business meant years of grinding until Fisherman’s Market could stay afloat. A turning point in the company was marked by a shipwreck of another kind; the pandemic. “Thankfully we had planned to launch our website just a few weeks before the pandemic hit”, says Siegner.
