The largest shrimp farm in the United States is located, believe it or not, in Indiantown, Florida. Despite being some 32 miles from the Atlantic Ocean, HomeGrown Shrimp USA is producing tons of nearly prawn size White Pacific Shrimp, known more affectionately as White Footed Shrimp or to be bluntly honest in shrimp terminology, Penaeus vannamei.

While the name may be unfamiliar, so too may be the taste of real fresh shrimp. Most people in the USA are familiar only with frozen or frozen at sea and delivered in so called "fresh" condition for sale onshore.

Sam Yates, the Host of The Florida Business Forum went on the hunt for true fresh shrimp in Indiantown with the CEO of HomeGrown Shrimp USA, Robins McIntosh, who is also Vice President with agro-industrial giant Charoen Pokphand Foods, a worldwide corporation.

Dr. Rishi P. Singh, MD, Chief Medical Officer and Vice President of Cleveland Clinic's Martin Hospitals took time from a busy schedule to sit down with The Florida Business Forum Host Sam Yates to discuss the five-year journey the Cleveland Clinic has made in the acquisiton of the Martin Memorial Health System.

It's been a journey of endurance and positive growth that has not been without a few bumps along the way. 

From losing $70 million in revenue in the first year of operations under the Cleveland Clinic management umbrella to weathering the Covid storm, the hospitals located on Florida's Treasure Coast have helped the regions greatest treasure -- its human treasure -- remain healthy and maintain a positive health care attitude.

Kugler took time from a busy schedule to chat with The Florida Business Forum Podcast Host Sam Yates to discuss where Direct Mail has been historically and where revolutionary changes and technologies, including artificial intelligence, are taking today's modern marketing and advertising team.

The dynamic duo also talked politics and how what you may see in your mailbox over the next fourteen months may be tied directly to an omnichannel campaign that begins online, circles your local voting precinct, and ends up in your traditional mailbox.

Kash Sharfi, the CEO of Advantage Accounting & Tax CPAs, is one of the most respected voices in the CPA community in South Florida. Mr. Sharfi recently sat down with Florida Business Forum host and business guru Sam Yates to explore Employee Retention Credits or ERCs as they are known.

The Florida Business Forum discovered many business minds in Florida simply have a vacancy when it comes to the real truth about this special COVID employee funding reimbursement program. 

The truth is ERCs are real. However, the inside business scoop is you really DO need a CPA to claim the credit and help your business stay on the legal side of the refunds.
