Mango Man Cooks LLC

Ownership

Thony Clarke is the Owner, an immigrant who set roots in Madison, WI with his first food cart, Cafe Costa Rica, in 2004. His Afro-Latino family-run business nurtured and grew the Mango Man Cooks food and brand.

Local Sourcing

The Mango Man Cooks products and Cafe Costa Rica dishes are 100% made in Madison using ingredients sourced from local farmers. Products are sourced from Willy Street Co-op, FEED Kitchens, Dreamfarm LLC, and Northside Farmers Market.

Community Involvement

His humble and charismatic personality has made connections and friends across the Dane County region, with a reputation and market penetration which few restaurateurs in Wisconsin can lay claim to. He maintains an active schedule getting out to events around the Madison area and state, spreading his Mango Man Sauces which can be found at multiple locations.

Local Workforce

No public reviews or information about wages, employee practices, or tenure found on available sources. Chef Thony's expansion goals include building jobs and inspiring a new generation of entrepreneurs, indicating workforce commitment, but specific evidence is insufficient.

Revenue Retention

Products are available at select retailers in Dane County including Willy St Co-op locations, set to expand across the Midwest. As a Madison-based, family-run business with all production in Madison using local suppliers, most revenue likely stays local, though expansion plans suggest some outflow.
