We are happy to announce that Bush Brothers & Company has selected Marlin as their new foodservice agency. Bush Brothers produces a portfolio of more than forty products, including Bush’s Best Baked Beans, the #1 brand in foodservice and retail.
Marlin peeps took our first trip down to Knoxville recently to meet everyone, tour the mind-boggling Chestnut Hill plant (tucked into the beautiful Smoky Mountains) and even see the recently renovated, turn-of-the-century home of A.J. Bush himself. What an incredible introduction to the company and people behind the brand we were already familiar with as consumers.

“Bush Brothers is a true Americana brand, having been around for more than a hundred years,” said Marlin President Michael Stelzer. “Being selected to represent Bush Brothers is more than a great responsibility. It’s an honor.”
Erik Henry, Bush Brothers Director of Foodservice, said, “We connected with the people, the corporate culture and the insights and look forward to working with Marlin to grow our sales in foodservice.”
Since 1908, Bush Brothers has been an industry leader. Famous for their baked beans (as well as their Jay and Duke tv spots), Bush Brothers also offers more than 40 other quality products, including 11 bean varieties as well as hominy, greens and chili.
