Ilwaco
Ilwaco is a fishing-port city at the mouth of the Columbia River in Pacific County, Washington, home to the Port of Ilwaco, a commercial-and-charter fishing fleet, seafood, and tourism at the gateway to Cape Disappointment. Its economy runs on commercial and charter fishing and the port, seafood processing, tourism and Cape Disappointment recreation, retail, and the small businesses of a Columbia-mouth fishing port. Media & Technology Group builds bespoke business platforms (custom software, AI automation, managed IT, and marketing) for the Ilwaco area's fishing, seafood, tourism, and small-business operations, and we serve them remote-first from York County, Pennsylvania. Distance is no barrier, and we add on-site time when a project warrants the trip.

Can you help an Ilwaco commercial-fishing or marina business?
Yes. A commercial-fishing operation or marina at the Port of Ilwaco is exactly who we build catch-and-harvest tracking, slip-and-moorage, vessel-and-trip records, inventory, and reporting tools for, built to tolerate waterfront connectivity, so the operation runs from one system.
Can you help an Ilwaco charter or sport-fishing business?

Where does AI help an Ilwaco business?
In intake, scheduling, booking, catch and inventory tracking, document and data processing, customer support, and sales and marketing operations, so an Ilwaco fishing, seafood, or tourism business gets real leverage without adding headcount for every new process.
What's the cybersecurity baseline for an Ilwaco business?
Managed EDR, MFA, immutable backups, phishing filtering, strict access controls, and a written incident-response plan, plus food-safety and secure-payment handling for charters, seafood, and retail. We set it up and manage it for you, aligned with your needs.
What does a custom platform cost an Ilwaco business?
A single focused workflow runs from the high four figures into the mid five figures; larger fishing, seafood, or multi-channel platforms scale from there. We scope it to what your Ilwaco operation actually needs and phase it so value lands early.
How long until it's running, and who owns the code and data?
Usually eight to ten weeks to the first live workflow, then iterative improvements from there, and you own the code and the data outright, with no lock-in, hosted in an environment that fits your requirements.
Can you help an Ilwaco business reach anglers and visitors and get found online?
Yes. Destination, local, and regional SEO, content, and booking tools tuned for Ilwaco and the Columbia-mouth and Long Beach Peninsula area, so the anglers and visitors searching find you first and the pipeline actually converts.
Do you only work with large organizations, or also small Ilwaco businesses?
Both, and much of our Ilwaco work is small and midsize: a charter operation, a seafood processor, or a port-side retailer is exactly the kind of operation we right-size a platform for, without enterprise overhead, with on-site time when a project warrants it.
