Kehe Food
Distributors, Inc. has signed an agreement to acquire Tree of Life, Inc. We
anticipate an early 2010 closing date.
This
historic event for Kehe Food Distributors, Inc. will (when closed) unite two
dynamic companies with the ability to more efficiently and effectively serve our
retail and vendor partners. The two companies complement each other’s strengths.
The combined resources of Kehe and Tree of Life will create significant
marketing, sales, account management, merchandising, distribution and eCommerce
synergies that will benefit our retail and vendor partners. The combined
enterprise will provide Natural & Organic, Specialty & Gourmet and
Ethnic products to retail locations throughout the US, Canada, Mexico and the
Caribbean.
Kehe
believes in identifying and filling the product and service needs of retail
partners. The combined company will be better suited than ever to fulfill this
vision—for retail partners ranging from the smallest independent grocer or
natural food store to the largest national chain.
During
the transition process, your continued support will be critical to our success.
It is of utmost importance that we all remain on-track with our selling programs
and initiatives. Your Kehe business activities are to be conducted as usual, and
you should continue to interact with your regular Kehe contacts.
We are in
the process of developing plans for the integration of the two companies. We
will communicate details as they become available.
If you
have any questions regarding this communication, please contact Ted Beilman at
