“Since our inception, Aquamar has been rooted in innovation, starting with our founders who were instrumental in bringing surimi to North America all the way to today as we evolve alongside modern consumers with our new shellfish innovations sourced from Italy and Spain,” said Daryl Gormley, CEO. “From the shrimp to the clams and mussels, our latest offerings give retailers affordable, one-of-a-kind options that their consumers can enjoy in the comfort of home with almost no preparation needed.
