Faegre Drinker advised Philadelphia-based private equity firm Graham Partners on its investment in Woodland Foods, the law firm said.
Woodland Foods said it got advice from Vedder Price. No financial details were disclosed for the transaction.
Headquartered in Waukegan, Ill., Woodland Foods supplies ingredients including herbs, spices, rice and grains into food service, industrial, retail, and e-commerce channels across North America.
Woodland is benefiting from current “megatrends” driving demand for plant-based, healthy foods, and global flavors, according to a company statement.
“Graham Partners brings extensive experience working across the food industry and will provide strong support to accelerate Woodland Foods’ significant growth,” said Woodland Foods founder David Moore in the statement.
