PORTLAND, Maine, Sept. 21, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- For the sixth year in a row, September 25th marks National Lobster Day, an annual holiday celebrating the hardworking men and women who support the integral industry. From the cold, clean waters of Maine, the distinct sweet flavor and sustainable harvesting practices have made Maine Lobster one of the most iconic foods in the world.
While this year has brought challenges to the industry, it has also demonstrated the resiliency of Maine fishermen, dealers and processors that have worked tirelessly to innovate and find ways for consumers to enjoy the sweet flavor of Maine Lobster from the comfort of their own homes – especially during the pandemic, when 54% of Americans are cooking more at home.

"Lobster is an important symbol of Maine's identity and during these challenging times, we hope consumers across the country join us in celebrating National Lobster Day by ordering fresh Maine Lobster and in turn supporting this beloved fishery."
