Multi-Flow Industries, a US-based producer of branded and private label beverages, has acquired Ohio-based independent fountain-dispensed beverage distributor Multi-Flow of Columbus.
Multi-Flow Industries expects the acquisition to provide an opportunity to expand its distribution reach to customers in Central Ohio.
Multi-Flow Industries CEO Mark Stephens said: "This acquisition affords our company to literally service half of the geography of the great State of Ohio - an area already very near and dear to our interest and our hearts."
Independently owned and operated by Jeff and JoAnne Crair, the distributor provides soft drink dispensing equipment and a variety of beverages.
Customers of the acquired distributor will be offered with same quality beverages with slight changes initially, said the company.
Jeff said: "Although this wasn't an easy decision, we have chosen to move on to the second phase of our lives-retirement."
Multi-Flow produces concentrated iced teas, juices, carbonated soft drinks, energy drinks and fortified functional water in bag-in-the-box packages.
