McCall Farms acquires Sager Creek Vegetable Company brands

McCall Farms, producer of seasoned southern-style vegetables and fruits, has purchased the Sager Creek Vegetable Company, a division of Del Monte Foods. McCall’s existing national brands include: Glory Foods, Margaret Holmes, Peanut Patch and Bruce’s Yams. 

Del Monte purchased the Sager Creek Vegetable Company in 2015 for $75 million. The company’s latest sale price has not been announced.

The acquired retail and foodservice brands have national and regional distribution and include names like Allens, Veg-all, Popeye, Princella, Freshlike and Trappey’s.

“Leading brands like Allens fit perfectly with our heritage of making authentic, southern-style vegetables that can be served as a meal, side dish or used as a key cooking ingredient,” said Woody Swink, co-president at McCall Farms.  “The opportunity we have to expand the branded products we offer is made possible thanks to our employees. They are truly dedicated and passionate about McCall Farms being known as the preferred supplier for the highest quality vegetables available in retail and foodservice.”
