Phillips Seafood Donates To Maryland Watermen's Association

From MWA: On Wednesday, June 20, 2018, Phillips Seafood honored the Maryland Watermen's Association (MWA) with a cocktail reception at Phillips Seafood Restaurant in Baltimore to celebrate the efforts of the MWA and watermen throughout the state of Maryland. Phillips Seafood Restaurants President and CEO, Steve Phillips, presented MWA President Robert T. Brown, Sr. with a $10,000 donation, the direct result of fundraising efforts from sales of Phillips's Blue Crab Margarita and 100th Anniversary Cookbook.

Phillips Seafood Restaurants has pledged to donate $5 from every Phillips Seafood 100th Anniversary Cookbook and $1 from every Blue Crab Margarita sold at their Baltimore, Atlantic City, and Ocean City locations.

"I come from a family of Maryland watermen and have worked closely with local watermen all my life to supply seafood for our family's Hoopers Island processing plant and restaurants," said Steve Phillips. "Without them, our family business would not have grown to where it is today. We're proud to stand behind the Maryland Watermen's Association in their efforts to protect the heritage and future of our commercial watermen."

Since 1973, the Maryland Watermen's Association has tirelessly served the interests of watermen and the seafood industry throughout the state of Maryland. They have continuously worked to ensure the future of independent watermen and seafood businesses throughout the state. That hard work has given the MWA, its staff and leadership a strong position and high visibility with State and Federal regulators, as well as environmental and business associations and organizations.
