Lischerong Enterprises Holdings (LEH) has strategically acquired Seaside Enterprise and Holdings, the parent company of Seaside Grown®, a rapidly expanding coastal food and beverage brand rooted in six generations of American farming heritage.
Through this partnership, LEH has taken a meaningful equity stake in Seaside Enterprise Holdings, bringing strategic leadership, operational structure, and growth expertise to support Seaside’s continued expansion in retail, e-commerce, and co-packed product categories.
