Chrysalis acquires natural dog treat provider Phoenix Imports
Canadian private equity firm Chrysalis Acquisition Partners has acquired a majority stake in Phoenix Imports Inc, a Surrey, British Columbia-based importer and distributor of all-natural meat and bone dog treats. No financial terms were disclosed. Operating through two brands, Open Range and Exeter Farms, Phoenix sources a network of global suppliers for products sold at more than 1,000 specialty pet retailers in Canada. Phoenix Founder and President Shaun White said the partnership with Chrysalis will help build on growth opportunities "represented by the highly robust North American pet supply market and the rapidly growing neighbourhood pet retailer niche in particular."
