the cleanest clams in the business

The Chilantic clam product line was launched in the late 2000's when we first started producing our own chopped clams. We set out to source the best quality surf clams we could find that would produce a great-tasting clam chowder with the option for additional applications. It wasn't long before our chopped clams began garnering enough attention that we were able to add more clam products to complement our increasingly popular chopped clams. Following Chilantic's initial success, we added our raw clam strips and clam concentrate under the Chilantic label - all items that offer the same product integrity as their counterpart. Additionally, we converted our clams on the half shell that we've been distributing for decades to the Chilantic line.

We employ a hands-on approach in the manufacturing process, spending time each day in our plants during production and overseeing our operations. Owners and managers of Chilantic are all veterans in the seafood business with many years of varied experience in clam processing. Collectively, we have supervised the shucking and packing of over a billion pounds of clam meat, as well as billions of pounds of clam chowders, broths, fried clams, stuffed clams and clam dips. Our knowledge and experience provide our customers with help in formulation, cost control, and quality improvement. Our company can produce for a small specialty market or can formulate signature products with custom specs for higher volume manufacturers and distributors.
