With its meaty texture and mild flavor, wild swordfish is a favorite of first-time seafood initiates as well as enlightened connoisseurs. In addition to good taste, swordfish offers a low-fat, low-calorie choice that’s rich in omega-3 fatty acids and other vitamins and minerals. Harvested by more than 30 countries worldwide, this non-schooling fish averages 50 to 200 pounds but can grow to a whopping 1,000 pounds.
1 lb. of fish is about 2-3 servings depending on sides and appetites.

Sustainability
- Seattle Fish Company’s swordfish is harvested by long line, 150 miles east of Cape Canaveral, by the only MSC-certified swordfishery in the U.S. Because swordfish are worldwide travelers, classified as highly migratory species (HMS), international efforts are required to ensure their conservation. The United Nations (U.N.) oversees the international conservation and management of HMS through the Food and Agriculture Organization and regional scientific commissions, such as the Pacific-based Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission (IATTC). Fishery scientists from these commissions monitor and assess highly migratory fish populations and provide a forum for harvesting nations to implement conservation measures.
