$43.24 Million Asset and Stock Sale in the Food and Beverage Industry

Represented a long-standing food and beverage client in the $43.24 million sale of substantially all assets to a Minnesota-based portfolio company backed by a Delaware-based private equity firm. Four senior executives reinvested part of their proceeds into the buyer’s equity, ensuring leadership continuity. Our team collaborated with an investment banking firm and the company’s outside accountants to design a tax-efficient structure and navigate environmental, real property, OSHA, and equity rollover complexities. The deal closed smoothly, maximizing value for the client and positioning the business for future growth under new ownership.
