Kwik'pak Fisheries
Kwik'pak Fisheries is a community-based organization located in the Lower Yukon River region of Western Alaska, where the Yupik people have thrived for over 10,000 years. Established in 2001 by the Yukon Delta Fisheries Development Association, the organization focuses on improving the regional economy through local employment, training, and educational opportunities while ensuring a fair commercial market for local fishermen.
In addition to its commercial fishing operations, Kwik'pak Fisheries responsibly develops fur and timber resources and provides river towing and construction jobs. The establishment of the Fisherman's Store further supports regional residents, allowing them to prosper while remaining connected to their culture and environment.
