“Peter Pan has a customer-first culture,” Frazier said. “Part of my role will be working closely with the end customers to develop the products they want and need. We’re really focused on relationships and that includes combining forces with the fleet to harvest wild Alaska seafood sustainably and responsibly and then deliver the kinds of value-added products the end customer is looking for. It’s a big deal and Americans want product that is harvested and produced sustainably, here at home in the U.S.”

In addition to this, Rich Wolverton returned to Peter Pan as new vice president of sales in March.
