United States v. Seafood Supply Company, L.P.

On March 4, 2026, Seafood Supply Company, L.P. (SSC) pleaded guilty to a two-count information charging the company with two felony violations of Lacey Act False Labeling (16 U.S.C. §§ 3372(d)(1), 3373(d)(3)(A)(i)). Sentencing is scheduled for June 17, 2026.

SSC is a seafood wholesaler in Dallas, Texas. Between January 2020 and February 2022, the company sold Chilean salmon that it falsely labeled as more expensive salmon from Scotland, Norway, and Canada. A conservate estimate of the illegal gains generated from this fraudulent “country-of-origin” labelling scheme is approximately $200,000.

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration conducted the investigation.
