Our Company was started in 1982 when we acquired our first operating company. Since then we have grown our family of great businesses to over twenty independent operating companies. Our name, Saltchuk, comes from a trading language, Chinook Jargon, that was developed by the natives of the Pacific Rim in North America. After the period of contact the language adopted words used by the Europeans that the natives traded with – principally French and English. “Saltchuk” means saltwater. Our name is suggestive of where we come from and what we do. Chinook Jargon was the language of business, it was inclusive of all peoples, and it was dynamic – all traits which we like to think are associated with our Company. We are organized with a relatively small office on Lake Union in Seattle where we take on two primary functions: overseeing the management of our existing businesses; and gathering and allocating capital. We are proud of the services and/or products that we produce and encourage you to learn more about our Company through the links provided on this site. Our goal is to create a work environment throughout our family of businesses where you would want your family to work and we encourage you to join us by looking through our job postings around the Company.
