The deal marks Novvia’s first consumer-oriented acquisition following the company’s acquisition of Saxco in January.
“Since acquiring Saxco, we have been focused on identifying complementary consumer businesses and end markets with strong and durable growth profiles, diverse supply bases, and high degrees of fragmentation,” Novvia Executive Chariman Ken Roessler said in a May 1 news release. “GHI fits well within this consumer thesis.”
Jason Clerke, owner of GHI, will continue to run the business and manage day-to-day operations.
“We are thrilled to partner with Novvia to support our continued growth,” Clerke said. “We look forward to leveraging Novvia’s strong supplier relationships and resources to continue to provide value to our customers.”
