History

Presenture, a national food marketing agency, evolved from Maher Marketing Services, a Texas-based foodservice and retail food brokerage company founded in 1988 by Michael O. Maher.

In 1990, Maher Marketing Services began assisting small foodservice manufacturers by developing and maintaining headquarters supplier relationships with Sysco Corporation, the largest foodservice distributor in the nation. These services soon added a marketing component, followed by strategic planning and positioning.

In 2009, Maher Marketing Services was sold to Empire Marketing Strategies, the national Kroger broker in the United States. Before the sale, its Sysco business book was spun off, and Presenture was created.

After much success and realizing the significant voids food manufacturers face when attempting to take their products to market, Presenture was formed as a direct solution to this problem. Our many years in the food arena have enabled us to become a resource for manufacturers seeking imaginative ways to pivot their sales and marketing initiatives.

Presenture has 20 clients today, managing over $300 million in sales. We have represented three of our clients continuously for over 30 years.
