Fermented Food Holdings (FFH) has purchased GLK Foods’ sauerkraut division for an undisclosed sum.

With the deal, FFH gains GLK’s sauerkraut brands and “extensive” supply chain capabilities.

“With the acquisition of the GLK sauerkraut business, we gain capabilities in procurement, packaging solutions and distribution that are very strategic to our vision,” said FFH COO, Jorge Azevedo.

Oliver Joost, FFH co-president, added: “We believe that the acquisition of GLK’s sauerkraut business will add critical supply chain capabilities and distribution reach to unlock our next chapter of growth”.

Founded in 2021, FFH owns a portfolio of fermented food brands, including Wildbrine and Bubbies which the company acquired earlier this year.

Ryan Downs, president of GLK, said: “The GLK team is excited to welcome the acquisition by FFH of its sauerkraut business in Bear Creek, Wisconsin”.

“FFH has a vibrant portfolio of brands to add to those of the GLK sauerkraut business and offers a business approach that will be an excellent fit for a business that has been family-owned for four generations.”

He added that “as a new FFH shareholder, I am particularly excited to watch the brands grow and see the positive impact on the local community”.
