Description:The Kotzebue Sound chum salmon fishery is the northernmost commercial fishery in the state of Alaska. The fishery has been in existence since the early 1960s and has rapidly expanded since the early 1970s. At present there are approximately 219 limited entry permits awarded to the area with about 80 percent of the permits held by Kotzebue area residents. This study, which is funded by the State of Alaska, is intended to provide local fishermen and processors with an overview of chum salmon marketing. It is hoped this information will be useful in terms of understanding markets, the competition in the markets and the need for establishing and maintaining certain quality standards in order to effectively compete in these markets.
