Mark Foods Acquires Endeavor Seafood

Mark Foods said it has acquired Endeavor Seafood, a frozen seafood importer and marketer based in Newport, Rhode Island. The companies described the deal as the next step in a partnership formalized after Mark Foods invested in Endeavor’s equity in 2021. Financial terms were not disclosed. Mark Foods said it will welcome the Endeavor Seafood team and fully integrate Endeavor’s operations. Endeavor was founded in 2001 by Mike Bush, Todd Clark, and George Souza, who previously held senior sourcing roles at major food companies, according to the announcement. The company said Bush and Clark will continue with Mark Foods, while Souza’s planned retirement will coincide with the transaction, with Souza remaining available in an advisory capacity. Barry Markman, CEO of Mark Foods, said the acquisition follows strategic investments including Bristol Seafood (2025), Arista Industries’ Seafood Division (2023) and Openwater Seafoods (2021). Mark Foods, founded in 2002, reported more than $1 billion in annual revenue and processes over 20 million pounds of seafood annually across Orlando and Portland facilities.
