Jonathan Merrill and Tyler Simpson founded LobsterME, which utilizes its Maine roots and relationships to provide live Maine lobster to businesses and consumers throughout the greater Baltimore/Washington DC Metropolitan Area. Their fresh lobster comes from Maine and is carefully packaged and shipped for arrival the next day. LobsterME aims to distribute Maine lobster affordably, always focusing on quality, consistency and customer service.
