Mastodon Ventures, Inc. Advises Mambo Seafood on Its Sale to Garnett Station Partners


AUSTIN, Texas, Nov. 09, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Mastodon Ventures, Inc., an Austin, Texas-based M&A advisor to the restaurant industry, announced the completion of the sale of Mambo Seafood to Garnett Station Partners.

Mike Ho, the founder of Mambo Seafood, said, "Mambo's continued growth in year-over-year unit volumes (even through the pandemic period) and the success of our recently opened units confirmed my belief that that is was the perfect time for Mambo's to grow. The sale is a great opportunity for our team members, who will be able to flourish professionally as the company expands. I am excited that more customers will be able to enjoy the unique seafood that we have been serving in South Texas for 25 years."  

Ho added, "I believe Garnett Station is an ideal owner given their success with other restaurants companies. The principals and deal team at Garnett Station were great to work with and they executed on every commitment they made to us during the sale process. The advice, support, and efforts of the Mastodon Ventures team went beyond any expectations I had and I do not believe I could have completed this transaction without their efforts."
