About the Company

We are an integrated portfolio company that brings craft, innovation, and operational mastery together to build and scale specialty food & beverage brands across both B2B and B2C.

Our portfolio includes owned and licensed brands such as Parisi Coffee, Mother Earth Organic Coffee, Cervasi Italian Foods, Luigi Bonura’s Pasta Sauce, and Margaritas Amigos Salsas, among others. Beyond brand ownership, we operate as a full-service operating company offering:

• Global importing and sourcing
• Private label program development

This is an exciting moment to help shape the future of a locally owned, family-led, multi-brand food & beverage portfolio company.
