Today, Mark and his brothers run a successful mid-sized Ontario food manufacturing business with 95 full time employees and seasonal support. Best known for their Kisko Freezies, Mr. Freeze, and licensed brands Welchs’s and Motts Juice bars.

“Maple Leaf Foods was one of the first companies to make their COVID-19 Pandemic Plan available to other Food and Beverage Ontario members. We are so thankful to them for sharing their expertise with us. It is still our ‘go to’ guide for ensuring the health and safety of our employees and customers,” said Mark Josephs.
“We believe that leadership begins with servant leaders and that we truly have to care for our team. Once people know you care and that their best interests are yours as well, then they will be even more committed.”
