Fishpeople
Hi. We love fish.
We believe that not only is seafood ideal for our bodies, but it’s incredibly delicious and fun to eat when prepared in a mindful way. Unfortunately, we also know that our world is changing and the very food that sustains us is at risk. We believe that by creating seafood entrees that are sustainable, local, affordable, healthy, and delicious we can create a “brand family” supporting a seafood industry that works hard to protect our watery habitat and help fish populations thrive. Join us! Life is tasty here.

As the founder and visionary of Fishpeople – Duncan Berry sits at the helm and heads up all key administrative, product development, marketing, sales and leadership of the company. His experiences in supply chain management and entrepreneurship shape the philosophy and daily work of this company. Duncan loves being a “minority in a majority of wilderness” on the Oregon Coast with his beloved wife Melany where they survive wind storms, run rivers in their drift boat and harvest bountiful huckleberries, wild mushrooms and sea salt.
Charlie Slate – VP of Operations
Charlie is our inside guy in the Oregon seafood industry. With 30 years in the business he knows darn near every fisherman, processor and purveyor in the state and how they treat the sea and their people. He runs our entire production system and makes all the details come together into a delicious whole. When not juggling fish, Charlie can be found working in his beloved garden, cooking up great meals and planning his next travel adventure with his sweet wife Martha.
