Our Legacy
For nearly 100 years, Acosta Group agencies have helped brands reach their ultimate retail and distribution goals. From our humble beginnings in Jacksonville, Florida, to our ever-evolving approach of today, we are proud of our storied growth and position as an industry leader.
Where It All Began
Founder Louis “L.T.” Acosta opened L.T. Acosta Company, Inc. This family-run, single-market food broker, served the greater Jacksonville, Florida area for 50 years before it expanded across the Southeast.
Acosta Becomes A Regional Agency
Expanding beyond Jacksonville, Acosta opened offices in Alabama, Georgia and Florida, which set the stage for continued growth.
Acosta Goes National
Acosta Sales Co., PMI-Eisenhart, Kelley-Clarke, and The MAI Companies joined forces to create Acosta Inc., which made Acosta a key national player. Minute Maid then appointed the new company as their national representative.
Strengthening Our Suite Of Services
From 2010 to 2017 Acosta focused on diversifying its services and expanding its national footprint via the acquisition of FrontLine Marketing, multiple foodservice agencies, Anderson Daymon Worldwide, Mosaic Sales Solutions, George Food Marketing, Etherton, Lenhart & Associates, The Pet Firm and ActionLink.
A Change In Leadership
Brian Wynne became President and CEO, leading the charge of integrating our growing business and continuing to strengthen our comprehensive solutions.
Strategic Acquisitions Of Leading Agencies
