Murray Pacific Supply of Alaska, in Sitka has become part of the LFS Marine Supplies family
with the completion of a purchase agreement announced August 11. The iconic Sitka store will
continue to operate under its current name and provide the excellent customer service they are
known for, with its familiar crew and longtime manager, Linda Boord, at the helm.

The acquisition of this well-established fishing gear and marine supplier adds a year-round
Southeast location to the six LFS stores already operating in Alaska: LFS/Donalsons in
Anchorage and Kenai, and LFS locations in Dutch Harbor, Cordova, Naknek, and Dillingham.
We are pleased to gain a strong presence in Southeast Alaska, said LFS president Shane
Russell. We are looking forward to servicing the customers in Sitka and other Southeast fishing
communities, and well also have an opportunity to supply gear for all of the regional fisheries.
We have a lot of respect for Murray Pacifics history and traditions in Alaska, Russell added,
and look forward to working with Linda and her team.
