Nature of Operations
Mama's Creations, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”, "we', "us" or "our"), (formerly known as MamaMancini's Holdings, Inc. and Mascot Properties, Inc.) was organized on July 22, 2009 as a Nevada corporation. The Company has a fiscal year-end of January 31.
Our subsidiary, MamaMancini’s Inc. (“MamaMancinis”), is a marketer, manufacturer and distributor of beef and turkey meatballs with sauce, grilled, roasted and breaded chicken; sausage and peppers; and other similar meats and sauces. In addition, the Company continues to diversify its product line by introducing new products such as ready-to-serve meals, single-size pasta and rice bowls, bulk deli, and packaged refrigerated protein products. MamaMancini's products feature many all-natural meals that were submitted to the United States Department of Agriculture (the “USDA”) and approved as all-natural. The USDA defines "all-natural" as a product that contains no artificial ingredients, coloring ingredients or chemical preservatives and is minimally processed.
Our Subsidiary T&L Acquisition Corp. ("T&L") is a premier gourmet food manufacturer based in New York. T&L doing business as T&L Creative Salads and Olive Branch, offers a full line of foods for retail food chains and club stores, delis, bagel stores, caterers and provision distributors. Our Creative Salads brand uses high-quality meats, seafood and vegetables, prepared to meet the standards set forth by the USDA and the Food and Drug Administration ("FDA"). Our Olive Branch brand concentrates on selling olives, olive mixes, and savory products to large retail customers, primarily in pre-packaged containers.
On June 28, 2022, the Company acquired a 24% minority interest in Chef Inspirational Foods, LLC (“CIF”), a leading developer, innovator, marketer and sales company selling prepared foods, for an investment of $1.2 million. The investment consists of $500 thousand in cash and $700 thousand in the Company’s common stock. The acquisition of the interest in CIF was accounted for under the equity method of accounting for investments until the Company acquired the remaining interest of CIF. On June 28, 2023, the Company completed the acquisition of the remaining 76% of CIF, in accordance with the terms of the Membership Interest Purchase Agreement dated June 28, 2023 by and among the Company, Siegel Suffolk Family, LLC, and R&I Loeb Family, LLC (the “Sellers”) for approximately $3.7 million, including approximately $1 million in cash at closing and a $2.7 million promissory note (the "CIF Acquisition"). The promissory note required a principal payment of $1.2 million in cash on the first anniversary of the closing date (which was made during the year ended January 31, 2025) and requires a payment of $1.5 million in common stock of the Company on the second anniversary of the closing date.
