That's when Clarence, the field naturalist, realized he had the makings of a business. A company is born. In September 1922, Clarence organized his own company, Birdseye Seafoods, Inc., where he began processing chilled fish fillets at a plant near the Fulton Fish Market in New York City. Realizing that he had discovered the basis for an entirely new type of freezing operation, Clarence decided to form a new company to capitalize on his invention. This was the beginning of the frozen foods industry.
