After the acquisition, Double B Foods will continue to be led by O’Ray. He said: “The team at Double B enthusiastically looks forward to partnering with Anderson to leverage our existing product development and formulation expertise, as well as our diverse manufacturing capabilities to provide innovative new flavour profiles and product delivery forms for our valued customer base while also expanding relationships with new customers in existing and new sales channels.”

The Anderson Group managing partner Cory Gaffney added: “Patrick, Don, and the team at Double B have done a remarkable job of optimising and growing the core business over the last several years, and have uniquely positioned the company to accelerate and diversify near-term future growth. We are thrilled to be partnered with them for the next phase of their growth.”
