Welcome to the 22nd episode of Amplify Clearwater Show, powered by 13th Ave Media! We are very excited to take you on a journey to learn more about all of the incredible businesses, nonprofits, and community leaders. In this episode, we are featuring Business Developer, Sue LaGree at Sea Dog Cantina!
Sue LaGree has been working in promotions and business development for over 25 years, first as an attorney in Boston, then as a small/start-up business consultant.
She first met Fred Forsley, owner of Shipyard and Sea Dog brands, several years ago, while living in New England. Sue moved to Safety Harbor 2 1/2 years ago, and last February, reconnected with Fred at her brother’s new restaurant- The Tiki Tavern, on Main St. in Safety Harbor.
Sue was impressed with Fred’s Florida locations including Sea Dog in Treasure Island, Sea Dog Cantina in Gulfport, and Sea Dog Tap Room in Clearwater and with his locally made all-natural vodka brand “Ice Pik Vodka”, distilled right here in Florida.
Through her connections in the professional athlete world (law school roommate is the agent for legendary football player Doug Flutie) she was able to get Ice Pik vodka and Sea Dog beer involved as a sponsor at a few prestigious Super Bowl events in Miami last year. From there, Fred asked her to join his team and promote his brands as he expands in the Florida market and beyond.
Sue is particularly excited about their location at US 19 in Clearwater. “Our Tap Room in the back of the building remains open while we renovate the entire location –(formerly Cody’s Roadhouse Restaurant) into a Sea Dog Cantina which will feature hand-crafted margaritas, Mexican-inspired food and over 50 different types of tequilas, including some exclusive brands which can be sampled as flights at the Cantina in our VIP tequila room. The menu was created by our incredible, top-rated Chef, Greg Picard. Recently, St. Pete Foodies gave him a perfect 10 score for what they described as “Mexican food heaven”. “
Sue and her team can’t wait to introduce this food into our local community. Sea Dog Cantina is expected to open in late December and they look forward to inviting all Chamber members to a VIP ribbon cutting event!
