Bruce Larson paid his way through college lobstering, earned his degree from the University of Maine Farmington in 2009, and started Southern Maine Lobster Company in 2011. Thomas Kinton, in the lobster business since 2016, joined him as co-owner in 2021. Between them they bring over 25 years in the industry to the storefront at 1021 US-1 in York.

They buy from independent local fishermen working sustainable grounds and keep the lobsters in a large in-ground saltwater tank held between 38 and 42 degrees. The shop sells live lobsters packed to travel, cooked lobsters to order, fresh-picked lobster meat, pre-purged Maine steamers, locally grown corn, and frozen shrimp.
