Seafood City is a Filipino supermarket chain in the United States with branches in California, Nevada, and Washington. [1]
Seafood City's tagline Higit sa Lahat, Pilipino (English: Above All, Filipino) or At Home Ako Sa 'Yo (English: With you [Seafood City], I'm at home) encapsulates its purpose of being the de facto "home away from home" of Filipinos in the United States.
It specializes in mostly Filipino food and products. In some of its locations, it serves as an anchor to many known Filipino businesses such as Jollibee and Red Ribbon. In other locations, Seafood City also features locally-owned Filipino video rental stores, immigration offices, travel agencies, and restaurants.
Seafood City has 14 stores all over California, two in Nevada, and one in Washington.
Plans to open branches in Queens, New York, New Jersey, and Virginia are currently being considered to serve the large Filipino communities in the respective areas. [2]
