Maine lobstermen continue to struggle with low prices
YORK, Maine — Local lobstermen are waiting to see if a new global marketing campaign for Maine lobsters will keep prices stable….Yet Sinclair said what’s hurting lobstermen is a changing industry made up of investors who want bigge
r profits and who have never stepped foot on a lobster boat. Sinclair brings his catch to a smaller dealer in Kittery who pays fairly, he said. The bigger dealers “are killing the industry,” Sinclair said. “They’re setting the price; it’s price fixing in the worst way.” continued@seacoastonline
