Just like the fictional protagonist of the Oscar-winning film, Green knew nothing about the shrimping industry before entering it to help out a friend. “Every week they gave me so much information to learn about the company and the product itself,” he said. Green’s impact on the shrimp business is surprising given that he wasn’t a fan of the food growing up, even though he was raised in Donaldsonville, Louisiana—part of metropolitan Baton Rouge, right near the Mississippi River and not far from the Gulf of Mexico, where fishermen catch his shrimp.Now a shrimp connoisseur, the owner and president of Oceans 97 splits time between Baton Rouge and Boston.
