Laura Foley Ramsden’s passion for fish is in her DNA.

The 53-year-old is a fourth-generation fish mongress in Massachusetts. Her great-grandfather founded Foley Fish back in 1906, and it’s been in the family since. Ramsden and her husband bought it from her parents in 2004.
 

Though they sold the company to specialty food distributor Chefs’ Warehouse in 2021, Ramsden and her husband remain actively involved with the business her family started.
Over the years, Rasmden has played a role in nearly every aspect of the Foley Fish business, from packing fish to building a social media presence. Her annual salary started at $23,000 fresh out of college, and she earned $200,000 in 2021, when the company sold. Her official title was most recently VP of sales, but she’s better known as the fish mongress.
