The Yellowfin Tuna Protocol

Your work is a mastery of the sea. It is the science of reading currents and temperatures, the art of the sustainable catch, and the disciplined, high-stakes craft of handling and preserving a pristine product hundreds of miles from shore. The quality of a sushi-grade loin is not determined in a restaurant; it is forged in the final, critical moments on the deck of your vessel.

You produce one of the most sought-after proteins on the planet, the foundation of a multi-billion dollar global culinary market.

The global market for tuna operates on a fundamental disconnect. You are paid based on a commoditized "grade"—a subjective measure assigned at the dock that often fails to capture the true quality of your catch. The final consumer, however, pays an immense premium for the story of that quality: the sustainable methods, the expert handling, the perfect cut.

You bear the entire risk of the voyage, only to be paid a fraction of the value your mastery creates. This is the broken equation of the pelagic trade.

THE GUILD protocol is designed to eliminate the grade gamble. We are executing full, premium-priced acquisitions of sustainable fishing fleets and their operational assets.

We acquire the risk—the fuel costs, the market volatility, the logistical burdens—in exchange for a life-changing cash buyout and a permanent equity stake in the new, consolidated seafood economy. Your expertise as a captain and crew is retained and rewarded with a guaranteed, premium contract.
