About Holy Crab

Holy Crab was founded by Irene and Lucas Calderon, a husband-and-wife team who built this company around a simple belief: great seafood brings people together. What started as a personal family tradition has become a national celebration of fresh Florida flavors and unforgettable shared moments.

Lucas grew up in a home where stone crab season felt like a holiday of its own. Some of his most cherished memories are of his father placing a platter of fresh stone crab claws at the center of the table — the cracking, the laughing, the quiet pauses to savor something special. It wasn’t just a meal; it was a ritual. A moment of connection. Something that brought everyone together.

In 2020, during the pandemic, Irene and Lucas realized how much people longed for those same kinds of moments at home. With restaurants closed and gatherings limited, they set out to deliver not only fresh Florida stone crab claws, but the joy, warmth, and togetherness that come with them. They began by shipping just-harvested stone crabs straight from the Florida Keys, packed with care and sent out with the promise of coastal freshness.
