Direct to the public since 1975 Fabian Seafood is a small family business based in Galveston, Texas, which started in 1975, selling their fresh shrimp throughout most of Texas and Oklahoma from the back of pick-up trucks. Back then, they would buy the shrimp from the boats, ice them down, and drive overnight several hundred miles or more inland to sell them the very next day. Of course, lots of customers were skeptical, especially about buying from a truck in a parking lot. But after they tried their fresh shrimp and told their friends, their business grew. They started carrying other seafood products, but fresh shrimp is still their main business.

Since 1977, they have transported their fresh shrimp and other fresh seafood in refrigerated trucks and, later, also by air cargo, and have sold throughout the Midwest and Plains States direct to the consumer. Their selling areas include most of Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, and Oklahoma, and parts of Illinois, Indiana, North and South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas and Texas. They are fully licensed and inspected and take great care in ensuring that the seafood they sell is the freshest available. The Shrimp Season generally lasts from April into November and they are closed the rest of the year. They also bring up Fresh Shucked Oysters in the Spring and again in the Fall. Fresh Blue Crabmeat is available starting in May. Crawfish are in season from April ’til July, Red Snapper usually in the Spring, and Flounder start coming in once they get a few cold fronts in October.
