I posted a pic of one of them’s cold storage facility. It’s in Eunice off 190.
Riceland Crawfish - Dexter Guillory. Dexter passed away in Dec 2020 (Covid) and I assume his 2 children & wife run the operation. It’s large - I asked him at one time a decade or so ago if he thought he was the largest volume crawfish wholesaler in the state - he didn’t know if he was the largest but he felt he was in the top 3.
Dexter was one that started as small crawfish farmer as a side-line business/income, his full time job was a produce manager at a grocery store (as I recall), and over several decades built one hell of a crawfish business.

Sounds like the America I grew up in. Good for him.

I know their operation is closer to the tracks that cut through by La-13/190.
The cold storage with one of the three Crawfish Triumvirates is headed back out of town going towards Lawtell out of Eunice. That may be owned by the Riceland people, I’m not sure.
All I know is I’ve spent way more time talking about crawfish on TD this year than actually eating crawfish and I hope that changes soon.

Thought this has been mentioned before when folks talked about who controlled pricing. The other two mentioned were Troy Landry and the Bernard guy
