Calavo Acquires Renaissance Food Group

Calavo Growers, Inc., has signed an agreement to acquire Renaissance Food Group, LLC, which operates six processing facilities throughout the United States and produces, markets and distributes a range of products for produce, deli, meat and food service departments. The company’s products include fresh cut fruits, ready-to-eat vegetables, grab-and-go salads, snacks, deli-style sandwiches, wraps and party trays. It has annual revenues exceeding $100 million.

“Our acquisition of Renaissance Food Group and its outstanding Garden Highway brand represents a transformational step forward for Calavo,” says Calavo Chairman/President/CEO Lee E.
