Following a Rough 2024, Louisiana Crawfish Producers Are Bouncing Back | Eater
"A long-standing seafood-boil restaurant and wholesale supplier in Metairie that saw customer visits and orders shrink dramatically during the 2024 shortage as media coverage and high prices (retail and wholesale topping roughly $15/lb early that season) scared off regulars. Its wholesale business selling to French Quarter restaurants helped stabilize things, and by 2025 business rebounded—recent weeks up about 30% with live crawfish selling around $4.99/lb and docks reportedly overflowing—though the owner worries diners may tire of the surge before the season ends." - Amy McCarthy
