Montondo's
Seafood was established January 15, 1917 by Frank Montondo
at 23 Main St. As the business grew it moved
several times until 1963 when it moved to the current
location at 201 East Ave., Lockport, New York. In 1941,
Frank was killed in an automobile accident. In keeping
with the family tradition his daughter Arlene and husband
Howard Hobbs took over the business. At this time the
company began to sell to area restaurants.

In
1971, Tim and Barb Ennis joined the company with Tim
as Manager and Barb as Office Manager. They purchased
the business from the Hobbs' in 1985 and continued to successfully grow the business. In 1995 the Ennis' purchased and renovated a 27,000 sq. ft. warehouse at 20 Ann St., Lockport where wholesale operations continue to be centered.
In 2009, Robert Luff became sole owner and President of Montondo's Seafood. Robert began his career at Montondo's in 1973 while still in high school and continued his employment through college. Robert became a partner and Vice President in 1999, fully purchasing the business in 2009. Robert resides in Lockport with his wife Patricia and step-daughter Karly.
Montondo's
wholesale division continues to expand; now
serving over 500 restaurants, institutions and wholesalers
all over Western New York. Montondo's success has
been built on quality products and friendly helpful service.
The management feels fortunate to have reliable, concerned
employees whose aim it is to please the customer and who have
helped us attain more than 95 successful years in business. From the
modest beginnings of Montondo's Fish & Oyster Market on
Main Street in Lockport to our present modern retail facility
on East Avenue and wholesale facility on Ann Street, we have
strived to make our customers the number one priority!
