Safe Catch

Wild Pacific Salmon

Mercury Tested We hand select and test every, single, salmon, to a mercury limit 25 times (25x) lower than the FDA action limit. No other brand in the world does this. That is why Safe Catch Wild Pacific Pink Salmon is the official salmon of the American Pregnancy Association. At Safe Catch, we test because we care. Artisan Cook Process Chefs know, slow cooking premium ingredients leads to amazing taste and texture. That is why we hand fillet and pack nothing but sashimi-grade salmon fillets, never fillers or artificial additives. We hand pack premium raw wild salmon steaks to retain vital Omega-3 oils and nutrients and then slow cook them to perfection. Nothing Added, Nothing Drained Carefully crafted pure ingredients make for amazing seafood that stands apart. Premium Salmon means there is nothing to pour down the drain. Simply open the can and use a fork to flake the salmon steak, then watch the natural omega-3s and vital oils be absorbed by the salmon. Safe Catch Wild Pacific Pink Salmon never adds water or soy-based fillers to the can. We take pride in carefully preparing the best salmon nature has to offer, for you. Sustainably Caught We proudly follow the recommendations of the Monterey Bay Aquarium Seafood Watch® program. All Safe Catch seafood is wild-caught, only using sustainable fishing practices. We never use FADs or long lines, which encourages healthy fish stocks while protecting dolphins and turtles. Our mission is to Protect You and Our Oceans.

Wild Tuna

We hand select and test every, single, tuna, to a mercury limit (10x) lower than the FDA action limit. No other brand in the world does this. That is why Safe Catch Elite and Ahi, Wild Yellowfin are the official tuna of the American Pregnancy Association. At Safe Catch, we test because we care. Artisan Cook Process Chefs know, slow cooking premium ingredients leads to amazing taste and texture. That is why we hand fillet and pack nothing but sashimi-grade tuna steaks, never fillers or artificial additives. In contrast, Industrial Tuna is cooked first on racks, refrozen, thawed, machine packed, where fillers are added, then cooked a second time, which may be an effective mass production process but definitively not an artisanal one. Our handcrafting of premium fish into noticeably elite tuna steaks makes Safe Catch a healthy and deliciously differentiated tuna. Nothing Added, Nothing Drained Carefully crafted pure ingredients make for amazing seafood that stands apart. With Safe Catch Elite tuna there is nothing to pour down the drain. Simply open the can and use a fork to flake the tuna steak, then watch the natural omega-3s and vital oils be absorbed by the tuna. Have you ever wondered, “Why do I have to drain a can of tuna?” We did too, so that’s why Safe Catch Elite tuna never adds water or oil fillers. We take pride in carefully preparing the best tuna nature has to offer, for you.

Trout Fillets

Enjoy this delicious fish on its own or in a variety of recipes. Safe Catch Smoked Trout is responsibly sourced from an ASC Certified (Aqua Stewardship Council) trout farm.

When childhood friend Bryan Boches learned about what Sean was working on, he was immediately hooked—pun intended! As a new dad, Bryan personally experienced the confusion and uncertainty surrounding seafood consumption during pregnancy and in children’s early developmental years. When he discovered Safe Catch’s unique mercury-testing process and the technology behind it, he realized it could change the way people think about seafood. How did he know? Because he trusted Safe Catch enough to feed his infant son.

Breakthrough Mercury-Testing Technology Developed
We pioneered a breakthrough heavy-metal testing technology capable of screening every single fish to ensure purity and safety in food.

Premium Slow-Cook Recipe Perfected
Safe Catch crafts artisanally prepared canned seafood using a hand- cut, hand-packed process and a slow-cook method that preserves the integrity of the fish and 100% of the tuna's natural oils and nutrients.

Safe Catch is Born
After multiple failed attempts to persuade the industry to adopt stricter mercury-testing protocols, Safe Catch took matters into its own hands. We launched our first two products—Safe Catch Elite and Safe Catch Albacore—to lead the change in seafood safety.

We don't just have a message. We have a mission!

As childhood friends, we never imagined that one day, we would be on a mission to change the seafood industry. But sometimes, a simple idea turns into something bigger than we could have ever dreamed.

What started as a passion for seafood has grown into Safe Catch—the world’s only 100% mercury-tested seafood brand, now trusted in over 19,000 retail stores nationwide. It’s been a journey of dedication, scientific innovation, and a relentless commitment to setting a new standard for purity and safety. Here is our story.

– Sean & Bryan Founders

From Inspired Beginnings
When Safe Catch founder Sean Wittenberg’s mother developed mercury poisoning from eating tuna daily, he saw an opportunity to put his scientific training into action.

Determined to prevent this from happening to other mothers, infants, children, and families, Sean assembled a team of researchers and scientists to develop a breakthrough mercury-testing technology—one the world had never seen before.

And with that, Safe Catch was born.
Well, almost…

Armed with this revolutionary technology, Sean was confident that other industry leaders would share his passion for giving consumers unparalleled transparency and confidence in the purity of their seafood.

Built for Families When we create Safe Catch products, we ask ourselves one simple question: Is this safe enough for our family to eat? That mindset guides everything we do, from how we source our fish to the rigorous standards we set for testing, quality, and transparency. “We don’t have customers, we have family.”
—Sean Wittenberg, Co-Founder
