ABOUT US
FOUNDER STEVE LE
Founded Gulf Coast Sea Trade in 2003
From a life of poverty to a provider to many.
Steve Le started out in humble beginnings as a US immigrant coming from Vietnam, looking for a better life for him and the future generation.
But something was missing - the feelings of home.
From then on, he made it his mission to bring quality ingredients from his homeland so that the new Vietnamese generation could connect to their food and roots, starting the companies HAPPY ELEPHANT and FRESHNESS CHOICE to ensure quality, fresh products to your company's doorstep.
Since it’s opening, Gulf Coast Sea Trade delivers over 500+ products in over 250+ stores with plans to triple their production and e-commerce to bring everyone excellent, accessible food and seafood, daily.
