From the Founder
My name is John Landry and I'm obsessed with my home state, Louisiana. I love it for its history, its wildlife, its culture, its people, and its natural groceries. Like most Louisianans, I'm an outdoorsman, an amateur cook, and I'm proud to be from my home state.
I love shrimp, and the best shrimp in the world comes from Louisiana. Unfortunately, the Louisiana shrimp industry is facing extinction. 90% of shrimp consumed in America is imported, highly processed, laced with chemicals, and stripped of flavor. Our mission is to create a better and more sustainable shrimp economy, one that connects Louisiana fisherman and their catch to the rest of the country.
Let Last Island take you on a culinary adventure to discover Louisiana's natural bounty.
