Captain Lance NacioAnna Marie

Seafood owner and shrimper Lance Nacio grew up in the estuaries of South Louisiana. His great-grandfather, grandfather and father all supported their families by hunting and fishing along the fertile coast of Terrebonne Parish, a tradition that Lance carries on today from his shrimp boat, the F/V Anna Marie.

Louisiana white shrimp are harvested at night, when they are feeding near the surface. Anna Marie Seafood uses specialized nets to skim the inland waters of the Gulf of Mexico, reducing by-catch. The nets are hauled aboard often, and the live shrimp are immediately sorted by size and rinsed. The shrimp are pre-chilled in a 33° F chill tank. We then box the shrimp and load them into our ultra-low temperature (-40°F) freezer to be quick-frozen in their natural state, before shipping overnight to customers throughout the country.

Working with Fed Ex, Anna Marie Seafood extends our commitment to quality from our vessel to your door, ensuring overnight delivery to the consumers, wholesale dealers and restaurants who purchase our shrimp. When you receive our shrimp, they are fresher than fresh!
