Grossmans Seafood, Inc. is pleased to announce the availability to tour our Groton wholesale and retail location for students interested in culinary arts, biology and retail operation. Our tours are designed to help educate and create interest in the seafood market. With over 30 years of history and experience Grossmans Seafood has become an industry leader in the greater New London area.
Culinary Arts students will be shown the processes of how fish, shell fish, and lobsters are priced, weighed, and then prepared for market. Fish preparation, filleting, and true cost analyses will enhance student understanding of how seafood is marketed. Students are invited to participate and become involved with hands on experience. Please note that all students are required to wear latex gloves and will be around food products that require safety procedures.
Biology students will see how Grossmans Seafood creates and maintains the lobster holding tanks; learn about the biological filtering system, and about the different species of seafood and interesting facts that surround them. We can if available have special fish delivered for student awareness and preparation. Lobsters will be weighed, separated, and identified for product marketing by students.
Retail and Restaurant students will focus on retail operations, marketing, and food preparation. Students will also be able to see how we prepare seafood, soups and other item for consumption.
To participate in any of these programs please contact Christian Porter at (860)448-9273 or email me at . We look foreword to your involvement and anticipate having a great time!
Thank you and God Bless
