Metro lobster and seafood is a family owned and operated business located in Warwick, RI. Partaking in the family business is owner Chris, his wife, and one of their sons, Cameron. We sat down with Chris Trosin to learn more about Metro!


Metro Lobster and seafood was started in 2007 and they are approaching 2 years in their current Warwick location! Chris says that the core value at Metro is seafood and being able to continuously supply the best quality products and service to their customers. Metro Lobster and Seafood sources from a number of local fishers and growers and Chris prides himself in the fact that they buy well and price well, creating a fair price for all. Not only do they have wholesale options available, but they also offer cash & carry. This outlet allows consumers to stop by and purchase their own local RI Seafood. For the cash & carry option, you can pre-order ahead of time or stop by their building, located at 8 New England Way in Warwick. Chris says that over the years they continue to see an increase in seafood sales and work with more local vendors, whether it is grocers, restaurants, retailers, caterers, and all those in between!
