What Mama's Creations, Inc. does

In the company’s own words

Mama's Creations, Inc. (NASDAQ: MAMA) operates as a leading marketer and manufacturer of fresh deli-prepared foods distributed across more than 12,000 grocery, mass, club, and convenience stores nationwide. The company's website is located at https://mamascreations.com.

The company's core business centers on developing and selling high-quality, fresh, clean, and easy-to-prepare specialty foods positioned in the premium prepared food category. Mama's Creations maintains a broad product portfolio that includes all-natural specialty prepared refrigerated foods such as chicken, beef, and turkey meatballs, meatloaf, sausage-related products, and pasta and rice entrees. Products are typically ready to serve within ten minutes and retail for between $7.99 and $9.99 per pound.

The company operates through three primary brands. MamaMancini's represents the flagship brand, featuring all-natural meals developed from recipes originating with founder Dan Dougherty's grandmother, Anna "Mama" Mancini, who emigrated from Italy in 1921. T&L Creative Salads focuses on prepared salad offerings, while Olive Branch specializes in olives, olive mixes, and savory products sold primarily in pre-packaged containers. All three brands are manufactured at company-owned facilities, with T&L and Olive Branch sharing manufacturing operations in Farmingdale, New York.

As of January 31, 2026, the company employed 581 full-time employees and one part-time employee across its operations. The company maintains vertical integration across its manufacturing and distribution capabilities, with substantially all raw materials and ingredients domestically sourced. Products are sold primarily through a commission broker network to large retail chains and food distributors.

The company's history reflects strategic expansion through acquisitions. In 2021, Mama's Creations acquired T&L Creative Salads and Olive Branch for $14 million combined. In 2022 and 2023, the company acquired Chef Inspirational Foods for total consideration of approximately $4.9 million. Most recently, in September 2025, the company acquired Crown 1 Enterprises, a Safe Quality Food and USDA certified full-service food manufacturer specializing in value-added proteins and premium ready-to-heat meals, for approximately $17.3 million.

Fund ownership is a floor, not a census — pensions, insurers and people holding shares directly are not visible here.

Fund ownership counts N-PORT filers only, so it is a floor rather than a census — pensions, insurers and direct holders are not visible here, and the remainder is not “held by individuals”.

Fund ownership is a subset of institutional 13F ownership — the two describe overlapping populations and must not be added together.
