MEMBER
To deliver the freshest possible seafood from local NC fisherman to the Triangle area.
Our seafood is fresh “off-the-boat” from Outer Banks fisherman. Rather than buy imported products that may be shipped halfway around the world, we bring you seafood direct from the North Carolina coast. Our seafood is unadulterated, preservative-free, dye-free and super fresh! Relatively speaking, this stuff was swimming yesterday…

COMPANY
Locals Seafood is owned and operated by local North Carolina State University graduates Ryan Speckman and Lin Peterson. They both have degrees in Fisheries and Wildlife Science – Go Wolfpack! Lin is a marketing manager for Great Outdoor Provision Co, and utilizes his pickin’ talents in local bands Old Habits and Tonk. Ryan worked as a wildlife biologist for the environmental consulting firm J.H. Carter & Associates for 9 years. Locals Seafood was started because of our love for the coast, the outdoors, good seafood and everything North Carolina.
HISTORY
Ryan lived on the coast for 7 years and became used to his commercial fishing buddies bringing by their daily catch. He soon learned the difference, and acquired a preference for fresh, local seafood vs. foreign/frozen for several days/weeks, bland seafood. We buy seafood from NC Fishermen and sell it fast in the Triangle. Our fishermen are bringing in a high quality catch – we hope you will try some! Buy Locals Seafood and experience what seafood is supposed to taste like.
