Creo Capital Partners acquires Georgia's chicken processor

Creo Capital Partners LLC, a Los Angeles-based private-equity firm, has acquired chicken further-processor and distributor Ga.-based Filet of Chicken.

No management team changes were planned in the operations of the Filet of Chicken.

This acquisition represents Creo's sixth investment in the food sector.

Filet of Chicken joins Good Harbor Fillet Company as Creo's second East Coast meat processor.

The move strengthens Filet of Chicken as it continues to grow and play a significant role in supplying further processed poultry products, said Filet of Chicken CEO Chuck Kendrew.
