About Us

Nestled between the Chesapeake Bay and Atlantic Ocean, Blue Crab Bay Company was founded on the Eastern Shore of Virginia in 1985. Our original product was a unique Sting Ray Bloody Mary mix that remains a classic, top seller today. The company branched into Virginia peanuts, seasonings, mixes, and our iconic stoneware. As we have expanded and added new products, we have stayed true to our original mission of celebrating the Chesapeake Bay lifestyle.

We are made for life's celebrations- big and small. We are the perfect plate or platter to serve yourself and your guests. If you live near the coast or dream of dinners with waves lapping against the beach, our line of food and stoneware products can transport you there. The company is owned by Elizabeth Lankford, who returned to the Shore after ten years living in the big city. The slower pace of life and smell of marsh mud made her grateful to be home. She lives on seaside Accomack County with her husband Paul. Elizabeth and her team look forward to helping you live the coastal life with us!
