About

Community Fish Market in Chula Vista has operated as a Pacific-catch seafood fishery and retail counter on E J Street since 1961, distributing whole fish, fillets, and shellfish to both walk-in customers and restaurant accounts. Stone crab is the signature offering, pulled from Pacific waters by the company's own fleet — a direct-harvest supply chain that distinguishes it from the prepared-plate presentation at T & M Seafood. The 91910 facility functions as both a retail storefront and a wholesale distribution hub, shipping fresh product to restaurants and supermarkets across the region. Retail customers select from daily catches displayed on ice alongside seasonal specialties, with whole-fish pricing set by the morning's haul volume rather than a wholesale-to-retail chain that adds margin at each distribution step — a direct contrast to the packaged seafood aisle at Carnival Supermarket. The fleet targets Pacific stone crab, yellowtail, white sea bass, and seasonal rockfish species, processing whole fish through in-house fillet, scale, and vacuum-seal stations for both retail counter and bulk foodservice packaging.
