Granger Family Committed To Quality Gulf Shrimp & Shrimpers

Selling shrimp from a shop in the back of their house in Maurice, LA, Al and Cheryl Granger are on a mission to elevate the quality of shrimping in the Gulf, as well as educate consumers on why it is important to buy Gulf shrimp.

The Granger’s (pronounced Gran-jáy) have been shrimping since the mid 1980’s, when Al left the oil patch and bought his first shrimp boat. They say knowing what you eat is important, and they preach the gospel of buying from someone you trust. When it comes to buying shrimp, the Grangers believe that package should always say wild-caught in the U.S.

“My husband used to work in the oil field,” explained Cheryl Ganger about how the couple transitioned into the business. “On his days off, he would crawfish in the Atchafalaya Basin where he was born. When he couldn’t crawfish, he was soon shrimping.”
