Located in a rural coastal community on Virginia's Eastern Shore, our company was founded by Pamela Barefoot in her kitchen to market culinary themes of the region. Today, Blue Crab Bay Co., a Bay Beyond Inc. brand and a Virginia certified women’s small business, offers an extensive line of specialty foods and gifts, internationally recognized for their signature blue labeling, packaging and taste.
Several of Blue Crab Bay’s products have won top honors in prestigious award competitions at the International Fancy Food Show. We have been featured in many national publications including Coastal Living, La Vie Claire and Nation's Business. In 1999 Barefoot was honored as the SBA's Small Business Person of the Year for the Commonwealth of Virginia. In 2003, she received the United States SBA's Outstanding Woman Entrepreneur Award.
Bay Beyond Inc. demonstrates a strong commitment to the environment and its rural Eastern Shore community, supporting the Chesapeake Bay Foundation and other organizations. Each year, the Blue Crabbers Relay for Life Team energetically raises funds to benefit the American Cancer Society. We invite you to join the ranks of our loyal customer base.
