She has recently been crowned Australia's Fastest Oyster shucker at an oyster farmers conference in Foster and is now set to take over the family business.

She follows her father Jim Wild, who represented Australian in the World Oyster Opening Titles in Galway Bay from 1983-88 and came back again out of retirement for one last go in 1993.

Now after 40 years in the oyster business, Jim and his wife Robyn are getting ready to pass it to the next generation - their daughter Sally and her partner Todd.

"It's good to see the blood is in the water," Jim Wild said.

"It's a big buzz for my wife Robyn and I, to be able to have our daughter move on with the business now that Sal owns half.

"She knows how hard she's got to work, it's not an easy game, but it's a great lifestyle when you're established."

Sally hopes to see the business continue to grow under her guidance.

"We're defiantly on the right track with the business, it's just getting bigger and bigger every year, we're selling a lot more oysters out of our shop," she said.

Jim said while times were hard at the beginning he was pleased with how his business has flourished.

"Starting off was very hard but this year my wife and I and Sal now we've been in business for 40 years," Mr Wild said.

"There's not a lot of small businesses that stay in business for that long but we're lucky enough we've stuck with it and kept going and its all worked out really good for us.

"How many people can wake up to this every morning?"

Jim Wild's Oysters are inviting all their customers on August 31 to celebrate 40 years in business as well as the birthday of the Sydney Rock Oyster.

"We're doing $1 oysters all day, I've organised a little party in the afternoon for mum and dad," Sally MacLean said.

"We'll just have a few of our customers and our local suppliers, celebrate and maybe have a few beers."
