About the Port of Juneau
Juneau, Alaska's capital, is one of the busiest cruise ports in the state during the summer season and receives cargo by barge from Puget Sound.
Who orders beef in Juneau
Cruise ships on Alaska and Inside Passage itineraries order Choice and Prime cuts for the dining rooms and crew-mess beef for the crew. Tugs, supply boats and barge crews order crew-mess beef in frequent, smaller lots. Domestic vessels need no export certificate. Ship chandlers in Juneau can buy from us by the case or pallet for their own vessel orders.
How delivery works
Frozen beef travels to Alaska in reefer containers on the regular liner and barge services from Puget Sound, then by truck, rail or barge to the port. Remote ports such as Dutch Harbor and Kodiak need more lead time. Fishing fleets and processors usually order before the season opens, and we can hold stock for scheduled departures.
For Juneau, we book reefer-container space ahead of the vessel's call. Your order arrives in sealed cases with the temperature record for the whole trip.
