Company History
Profish was founded in 1990 by Greg Casten. Mr. Casten's vision was to be a direct supplier of the highest quality seafood items to the finest restaurants in the Washington, D.C. market.
Casten began his operation utilizing a small walk-in cooler and two pick up trucks to service his initial customers. As the word spread throughout the D.C. market, a larger facility was acquired, more trucks were placed into operation, and the success story began to take off.
Over the course of the next year, Casten joined forces with Tim Lydon and the two of them charted the course for their company. Profish expanded its territory to extend outside of Washington D.C. and expanded into the surrounding suburbs and stretched north to service Baltimore. In addition to its service territories being expanded, Profish made its mark by becoming the only wholesaler in the area providing 7 day per week service to its customers. These service advantages propelled Profish into the top position of wholesalers in the market.
Profish has expanded its internal operation to make use of its 15,000 sq. ft. Washington D.C. facility that is monitored by The Food and Drug Administration (FDA), The United Stated Department of Commerce (USDC), and numerous other inspection agencies. Profish operates its refrigerated facility under the strictest HACCP standards in the industry to insure the safest products are reaching its consumers.
