In 1960, United Shellfish Company was opened on the Chesapeake Bay in Grasonville, Maryland by parent company Ipswich Shellfish Group. In order to expand quality seafood distribution to the Mid-Atlantic, Maryland’s abundant shellfish – clams, oysters, and crabs – were harvested and brought to an ever expanding number of customers. With over 50 years of successful business growth, we have become the trusted source for all of your seafood needs.
Ipswich Shellfish Group is a family owned and a Certified Women Owned and operated business. By offering a full line of premium brand seafood products, combined with outstanding service, we have established a history of successful long term relationships with our customers. We go the extra mile to assure the quick delivery of your always fresh order. We are proud to put you first!
