Here at Shaw's we love what we do and it shows! What's our recipe for success? Well, part of it is having a history that date ... s back to the 1800s. Back then, the Shaw family could be found on the waterways of Southern New Jersey working as watermen, fishermen and boat builders. As the 19th Century turned to the 20th, the Shaw's were still busy working those same waters. One of those men was H.W. Shaw, proud captain of a 118 foot skipjack oyster dredger named The Oysterman. While H.W. Shaw certainly must have loved his work, he believed there was a great opportunity for his family in Florida. So H.W. Shaw and Flossie Russell Shaw made the pioneering decision to journey to the Sunshine State. That's when the story of our company truly begins. In 1934, Captain H. W. Shaw and Flossie Russell Shaw opened the very first crab plant in Apalachicola, Florida. Shortly thereafter, the plant relocated to Jacksonville. That same year, John R. Shaw Sr. and Pheenix Shaw opened Florida's second crab plant. That small, independent crabmeat company was located in the very spot we are today. In the decades that followed, Shaw's Southern Belle has dramatically expanded and diversified. We're now a state-of-the-art processing facility with global capabilities. Yet our commitment to quality, consistency and innovation hasn't changed a bit. read more
