The Team
Today The MY PLACE Group, holding company of The Mussel Monger & Oyster Bar employs 35 crew strong and counting with an additional 65 crew indirectly supported via our farms.

Your Experiences
Kyle’s Story
You may notice I refer to “we” quite often. During the early stages it was just me as a shareholder, but “we” refers to the collective of the team. I believe that we all work for the company and our goal is to uplift and grow it and by doing so, “we” uplift everyone that works in the company and that everyone ultimately gets to benefit from its success though security and a passion to grow and be a part of something bigger than themselves.
