The Geoduck harvest by the Suquamish Tribe is handled as an enterprise. On November 5th, 1996, the Suquamish Tribal government chartered an independent branch and agency called the Suquamish Seafoods Enterprise (SSE).
SSE is mandated to oversee all commercial harvesting, processing, marketing, purchasing and selling of treaty shellfish and other seafood goods and services.
SSE owns four dive boats and contracts with Suquamish Tribal Member divers to harvest geoduck.
SSE has a processing plant and employs Suquamish Tribal members and others to pack and send live geoduck to our customers.
SSE has a business office and manages all business activities for the enterprise from that location at 15838 Sandy Hook Road, Poulsbo, Washington 98370.
