LOS ANGELES - BostonChron -- Felbro Food Products, a leading food and beverage manufacturer founded in 1946, has been recapitalized by Felbro Culinary Specialties LLC, a company formed by management, new investors, and members of the founding Feldmar family. Over its nearly 80-year history, Felbro has served customers in the foodservice, retail, and industrial food markets across the United States and internationally. The partnership with new investors with extensive food manufacturing experience positions the company to build on its history of growth.

With two production facilities in Los Angeles and Compton, CA, Felbro develops, blends, packages, and distributes liquid and dry blended foods, including beverages, desserts, syrups, sauces, and soups. Customers include regional and national quick service restaurants, coffee and donut chains, national retailers, grocery chains, foodservice ingredient suppliers, and foodservice distributors.

The new investment group, led by Clover Capital Partners LLC and Evanston Partners LLC, has provided significant liquidity for the founding family and will invest financial and strategic resources into Felbro to further expand its capacity and product capabilities. Felbro will also pursue add-on acquisitions of complementary companies.
