Clayton’s Crab Company was founded in Rockledge, Florida, in 1967, when Clayton Korecky, at the time a local fisherman, caught far more blue crab than he could use. He began by selling to wholesalers, and in 1970, decided to open his own seafood restaurant, featuring crab.
The company still sells crabs and other seafood wholesale, as well as offering live crabs for customers who wish to cook their own, but the company is best known for their own king sized crab and restaurant. Fish selection varies, depending on what is caught, as well as crab selection. Snow crab and King crabs are almost always available. Other food items include octopus, alligator, and duck.
Clayton’s Crab Company was sold to long time employees Brian and Jan Walker in 2013, who intend to keep the Clayton’s name.
