Fishpeople

Where did Fishpeople come from? Well, Duncan Berry, once one of the Oregon Coast’s youngest commercial fishermen captains at 16, returned home after retiring as a successful fashion industry entrepreneur. At the same time, Kipp Baratoff, a veteran of finance, green real estate, and natural resource management, decided to focus his expertise on consumer products. They shared a deep concern for the current state of coastal fisheries, where overfishing has reduced many fish stocks to a shadow of their original abundance (not to mention that the greatest part of the catch and jobs were being shipped overseas). In 2012, they founded Fishpeople to “re-imagine North America’s relationship to the sea.” Today, their innovations, relentless transparency and passion for sustainability are helping restore habitats, fuel American livelihoods and bring new ease, excitement and peace of mind to fish lovers nationwide.
