I thought ORA aquacultured their own stuff on premises from Harbor Branch. With this post it almost seems as its aquacultured in the pacific... shipped to Harbor Branch ( ora ) then resold as ORA aquacultured?

 

[DustinDorton]

Usename,
Our clams and some of our corals are grown in the Marshalls, the rest of our products are grown in Florida. MIMF is a subsidiary of ORA.

Is Seb working at the facility in the Marshalls? If not then is he still with the company in any capacity?

Wow can those Aussie's pound the beer.

Caterham, I think he is back on a pearl farm in Australia these days.
