About This Seaport
Behind the code US KQA lies Akutan Harbor, a natural basin in the eastern Aleutians that exists primarily to serve North America's largest seafood processing plant, operated by Trident Seafoods. The facility runs year-round, employing more than 1,400 people at peak and processing over three million pounds of raw fish daily, chiefly Alaska pollock alongside Pacific cod, king and snow crab, and halibut. Container and cargo vessels call to supply the plant and lift out frozen seafood, which dominates the cargo profile. General commercial freight, customs clearance and liner container services are not confirmed here. Trident has announced plans to replace the ageing plant with a new facility at Captains Bay on Unalaska. For routine shipments, the commercial port of Dutch Harbor/Unalaska, 36 nautical miles away, is the practical choice.
