Welcome to Hometown's Scallops, your trusted source for fresh, locally-sourced scallops delivered directly from our coastal communities to your doorstep.

Our Story

Founded in 2015 by a group of passionate seafood enthusiasts and local fishermen, Hometown's Scallops was born out of a desire to share the incredible taste of fresh, sustainably harvested scallops with seafood lovers across the country. Our journey began in the charming coastal towns of Nova Scotia, where generations of fishermen have perfected the art of scallop fishing.

Our Mission

At Hometown's Scallops, our mission is twofold:

  • To provide our customers with the freshest, highest-quality scallops available, delivered right to their homes.
  • To support local fishing communities and promote sustainable fishing practices that ensure the long-term health of our oceans.

Our Process

We work directly with small-scale fishermen who use traditional, environmentally-friendly methods to harvest scallops. Within hours of being caught, our scallops are carefully cleaned, packaged, and shipped to maintain their peak freshness. This farm-to-table approach ensures that you receive scallops of unparalleled quality and taste.

  • Partnering only with fishermen who adhere to strict sustainability guidelines
  • Using eco-friendly packaging materials
  • Supporting local marine conservation projects
  • Educating our customers about responsible seafood consumption
