Bubba and Forrest never caught shrimp together unfotunately. But prior to the war Bubba shrimped somewhere in Alabama, as did Forrest after the war.
Bubba Gump is a shrimp company that got its name from the 1994 movie Forrest Gump. In the army, Forrest meets his friend Bubba, who wants to open a shrimp company and fish for shrimp. Bubba dies in the Vietnam War, so Forrest starts the shrimp company with Lieutenant Dan instead.

Shrimp
His war friend, Benjamin Buford "Bubba" Blue, taught him about shrimping.
Here are some:fried, broiled, BBQ, shrimp sandwich, shrimp cocktail, shrimp kabob, boiled, shrimp salad, shrimp gumbo.
I think it was a shrimp boat business not a restaurant that Bubba was going to establish after military service.

Gump wanted to keep his promise to Bubba, which is why he started the Bubba Gump Shrimp business.
Lt. Dan invested the Bubba Gump shrimp boat money into Apple Computer. This is the 'fruit' company Forrest metions in the movie.
