In this episode, we sit down with Tony Bixler, the President of Local Ocean Seafoods, a popular restaurant and fish market in Newport, Oregon. Tony shares the story of how Local Ocean was founded in 2005 by Laura Anderson and Al Pazar, focusing on sustainable, local seafood from the Oregon coast. He discusses the restaurant’s changes to improving overall workplace sustainability and emphasizing the importance of supporting locally-owned businesses and buying local seafood. Not only does this reduce some of the environmental impacts but also supports ethical fishing practices and boosts the local economy. Tony’s tips for finding local secrets in the food industry are also an important tool to keep it local. Learn about where the majority of Oregon seafood comes from!
