A Word from the President -

In the mid 1970's my father and brother began working with local fisherman in the Gulf of Siam to produce high quality, wild catch crabmeat. The delicate blue swimming crab had long been a delicacy in Thailand and local fishing families were adept at catching and picking the crab to remove the delicious body and claw meat. However, distribution was limited to the distance the crabmeat could be shipped on ice. Finding a way to can this delicacy without losing its fresh caught flavor was the challenge. Our exclusive packing process met that challenge to provide US consumers with fresh tasting, shelf stable, shell-free crabmeat.

I grew up in Kansas City, Missouri. In 1977, I returned home from college in California and a year of study in Trinidad, to establish Sea Fare Foods Corp. as the marketing division of our crabmeat production company. At that time, imported canned crabmeat was virtually unknown in the US. People living near the Chesapeake Bay and the Gulf of Mexico were familiar with blue crab, but the general population had yet to discover the "crab cake."

In the early days, Sea Fare’s crabmeat was a welcome change from ‘machine picked’ canned crab for those not lucky enough to live near the shore. There are now many producers of canned and pasteurized crab meat, but nationally distributed Sea Fare and Miller’s Select crab remains second to none in flavor and consistent quality. My father still lives in Thailand and still produces the same great product. Many of the workers I met with on a recent visit to our factory on the Gulf of Siam in Southeast Thailand, are original employees or their children who carry on the tradition of quality and excellence.
