The original concept for the Jonsson shrimp peeling system was developed by Gregor Jonsson in 1938. Gregor owned a retail fish market in Highland Park, IL and to maintain the highest quality, he filleted fish himself and did all his own preparation. His motto, after all, was, "Nothing but the best." As he was peeling shrimp one day, his wife quipped that there should be a machine available that peels shrimp. After a few moments, Gregor responded "It would be easy!" He grabbed a paperclip that held the shrimp, used a pair of scissors to cut the shell, and then pulled the meat out with an ice pick.

While the basic concept hasn't changed in over 50 years, we are continually improving upon the performance and capabilities of the equipment.
