Mazetta said it is continuing to "explore additional opportunities within Maine."
Mazzetta became involved in the Maine lobster fishery in 2008. In 2010, the company purchased over five million pounds of Maine lobster and processed more than two million pounds in the state.
“This purchase is consistent with our overall strategy to incorporate Maine lobster into the Seamazz family of premium branded seafood offerings. We view the addition of Atwood Lobster Company as a critical step in our plans to vertically integrate our business while allowing us to keep pace with our customers’ demand for quality Maine lobster products,” said Mazzetta Company Executive Vice President, Jordan Mazzetta.
