Expanding Into St. Louis, MO
St. Louis is one of the major metros we're targeting as we extend our distribution reach north out of Plaucheville. It's a large foodservice and distribution market with no regional crawfish source of its own. We don't run a standing route there yet — restaurants, grocers, and distributors interested in farm-direct crawfish should call and tell us about your volume needs. Demand from an area is exactly how we decide where to run our next route.
