Savor the Sea

IT STARTED WITH A DEHYDRATOR & A DREAM

Risking it all for "fish jerky"... Call it crazy (plenty have), but after working for Stanford in marine science and sustainable aquaculture took him to 8 countries and on 3 trans-Pacific research expeditions, Neptune's Founder, Nick Mendoza, became obsessed with inspiring people to fight for a better global seafood industry through something they could hold, touch, and taste. It took a return to his family's cattle ranch in the Gila Wilderness of New Mexico to begin...

snack toward healthier oceans

Did you know, 90% of fish in the US is imported? Can you tell the difference when you buy fish? America's well-regulated, sustainable fishers are not being rewarded for their quality or stewardship of the environment. We work with undervalued local fishers and fisheries to raise their value & make the most of their catch, with 100% traceability to the source.

Supporting responsible local fisheries is a win, win, win... win. Good for the Ocean, good for fishing communities, healthier and higher quality for you.

Good for you, me & the sea

We're a small fish fighting for big change in the seafood industry. Every pack you snack reduces seafood waste, supports responsible US fisheries, and drives broader change so more sustainable fish in your diet = more fish in our oceans.

What cod be better!?

Founder & CEO

"Stop telling stories, Nick"

...Actually, tell that last one again. Committed to the Sea, but tragically born without gills, Nick lives a 24/7 passion for building a better food system from the ocean. He grew up with an abundance of Big Skies and wild game on a New Mexico cattle ranch, and jointly in San Diego, spending as much time as possible on the water and underwater.

Sunshine and spreadsheets, that's all he needs

Hailing from Palos Verdes California, Garrett developed a love for the sea inspecting the tide pools of Abalone Cove and making his fondest memories on the sunny Southern California beaches with his family. Garrett also loves European fútbol, numbers and pondering weird, philosophical questions like "what's constitutes a salad?"
