Our Mission

Puget Buoy has developed a fresh new type of pop-up buoy, one that prioritizes speed, durability, and space efficiency at a low economical price for commercial fishermen.

 

Feedback from commercial fishermen is our team's most important metric for measuring our success. We recognize that for Puget Buoy to be successful, we have to ensure commercial fishermen are first and foremost in the development process of any solutions created. We are always looking to expand our network of commercial fishermen to ensure that everyone is represented in the creation of any solution developed.

Puget Buoy is a green technology startup working with the seafood industry stakeholders to develop innovative fishing gear solutions that keep fisheries viable for everyone by improving access to fisheries, reducing the rate at which gear is lost in the ocean, and prevent whale entanglements for the improved health and sustainability of ocean fisheries.
