The chain offers a wide selection of imported Asian goods as well as American staples. As its name suggests, Seafood City provides fresh seafood, as well as meat and produce. In some of its locations, it acts as a marketplace and serves as an anchor to Filipino businesses such as Chowking, Red Ribbon, Jollibee, and Tokyo Tokyo. In other locations, Seafood City also features locally owned Filipino video rental stores, immigration offices, travel agencies, and restaurants.

Seafood City opened its first store in National City, California in 1989.[2] It has since expanded to 21 stores in California,[3][4][5] with a concentration in the Greater Los Angeles Area, San Diego County, and Northern California.

Seafood City has expanded into Canada by opening its first location in Mississauga, Ontario in the Heartland Town Centre shopping district in the fall of 2017.[11] Additional stores followed in Winnipeg in 2019, Edmonton and Calgary in 2020, and Scarborough, Ontario in 2021.[12]
