Bon Secour Fisheries is a seafood processor and wholesale distributor. The family-owned and operated business has been providing its customers with a variety of seafood products for more than 100 years. In 1896, Danish immigrant Frank Nelson began Bon Secour Fisheries as a small family-run oyster house on Oyster Bay. A 50-foot converted schooner named the Mary Etta was acquired. In 1920, a 16 horsepower engine was added to their boat and Frank Nelson along with two other boatmen were the first in the area to try to catch shrimp. Frank Nelson s son, John A. Nelson moved the business to its present location on the Bon Secour River in Alabama. A fleet of trucks replaced the railway to deliver the fresh catch to the customers. Bon Secour took on its present character in late 1978, when a 30,000-square-foot plant was built to pack, freeze and store shrimp. The company is now a seafood processing plant that packs the famous Nelson s Brand Oysters and Bon Secour Brand Shrimp plus a range of other seafood items.
