Our Story
Getting Our Start
Salt River Lobster has been selling seafood in the greater Maryland area since 1982. That’s 40 years and counting! The man who founded Salt River Lobster is a genuine lobsterman from Boothbay, Maine. A friend of his working at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) suggested he bring lobsters down from Maine to sell to the community. He brought about a hundred pounds of fresh, live lobsters in his old pickup truck, and sold every single one within an hour.
