SARA RADEMAKER

CO-CHAIR & OWNER OF AMERICAN UNAGI

It took someone with a global perspective on seafood to realize that the new standard for world-class unagi had to come from Maine. Sara Rademaker’s distinguished career has taken her everywhere, from shepherding aquaponic micro-businesses in the US to managing large-scale aquaculture farms in Africa. Her passion for the native fish species that became the focus of her work finally landed her in Maine. Here, she’s partnered with the state’s fishing, culinary, and business communities to establish the country’s largest commercial eel farm as the kind of future-focused business critical to sustaining ourselves and our world.
