In 2014, we began exploring the idea of owning a food truck out of a desire to spend more time with each other and our 3 growing kids, Breanna, Aaron II, and Zahria, and have more flexibility and control over our future. We had no idea about the amount of time we would actually spend working! LOL Aaron’s 20+ years of restaurant experience and Lakita’s 15 years as a Small Business Consultant for a Fortune 50 Company were the perfect combination for a small business, so we decided to pursue it by testing our ideas with our family and friends.

After months of testing and research, we decided that potatoes were extremely underrated and underutilized. It was important for us to offer something that felt like us, like home, but also could be enjoyed by the masses and so The Crab Pot Potato was born. Born and raised on the Northside of Jacksonville, Florida (DUUUUUUVALLLL!), we love and appreciated the love our city had for blue crabs and “crab pots.” These crab pots played such a huge role in our lives that we had to do what had never been done, put a crab pot in a potato! We shared this with our friends and family and they in turn shared it with social media and people lost it! It was then, we knew we had something!
