Alaska Manufacturers’ Association

The Alaska Manufacturers Association (AKMA) assists small to medium sized businesses is virtually every type of manufacturing in Alaska. They offer advice and assistance in business problem solving, in finding appropriate technologies, and in adopting the most advanced technologies available.

Of particular interest to Alaska seafood marketers is the Alaska Salmon Quality Program, managed and coordinated by AKMA. Designed to increase the quality of salmon in order to better compete with farmed salmon, the program involves voluntary conformity with handling procedures from the time the fish is harvested, regular inspections, certification, and the marketing of quality certified fish. Surefish, Inc. provides the training and general management for the program.
