Our shore-based plant in Dutch Harbor, Alaska allows us unlimited access to fresh water giving our clients a finished product with a flavor profile that can’t be duplicated.
Sustainability
The assurance and confidence that you are serving crab from the only sustainable Red King Crab fishery in the world.
Total Traceability
We provide 100 percent traceability. Each box is labeled showing the F/V (boat) that harvested the Crab and the date it was processed.
Consistency
Our crab is processed in one plant in Dutch Harbor, providing consistent quality year after year for every pound and every box.
Dock to Door - Fresh Alaska Crab Program
For over 20 years, The Crab Broker has been delivering FRESH COOKED, never frozen Alaska Crab to the continental US. Beginning in late October when the first deliveries of the new season are landed in Dutch Harbor, Alaska we begin our fresh processing program.
Depending on weather which affects the vessels and the planes, we ship FRESH NEVER FROZEN up to three times a week direct to your door. It doesn’t get any better or more quality control-driven than that.
Crab Seasons
Red King Crab
2021 Fishery closed. Although the season has always opened October 15th every year, in efforts to protect this valuable resource, Alaska Fish & Game has decided not to open the fishery for 2021. We hope to have Alaska Red King crab available again in 2022.
Brown King Crab
The season starts August 15th and typically shuts down around Thanksgiving. If the quota hasn’t been caught by this time we can see some deliveries start back up in January.
Bairdi Snow Crab
We can see deliveries in November during the Red King Crab season and sometimes again in January, again, depending on quota and weather conditions.
Opilio Crab
We start to see deliveries the first half of January and depending on size of the quota and weather, that can stretch into March or April.
