Seattle-based Peter Pan Seafoods' newly rebuilt processing plant in Port Moller, Alaska, is now fully operational less than two years after a devastating fire at the facility, company CEO Barry Collier told IntraFish.
The new plant is expected to increase daily throughput as well as boost the production of value-added products, particularly fillets, Gary Johnson, the plant's manager, told IntraFish. "We're attempting to double production with the same number of people," he said.
The overall footprint of the new plant is 42,000 square feet: 19,000 for the main processing area and 13,000 for the cold storage.
