O2 Sponsor Finance Provides Senior Secured Credit Facilities to Support Catalina Finer Food, LLC in their Acquisition of Saugatuck Kitchens, LLC

CHICAGO, IL / ACCESSWIRE / April 15, 2024 / O2 Sponsor Finance, a division of Old Second National Bank, announced that it provided senior secured credit facilities to support their client Catalina Finer Food, LLC ("Catalina") in their acquisition of Saugatuck Kitchens, LLC in partnership with shareholders Midwest Growth Partners, Promise Holdings, Gemini Investors, Farragut Capital Partners, Lake Country Capital, SharpVue Capital, and Spring Capital ("the Sponsors").

Catalina, founded in 1974, is a Tampa, Florida based manufacturer of authentic Cuban and Caribbean cuisine including varieties of croquettes, stuffed potato balls, tamales and other ancillary products. Catalina provides these frozen products to a variety of foodservice and retail grocery customers.

Saugatuck Kitchens, LLC located in Stratford, Connecticut is a producer of premium, handcrafted frozen foods for a diverse customer base including large supermarket chains, wholesale food distributors, high-end grocery stores and online food catalogs.

"Having partnered with the Sponsors a few months earlier on a recap of Catalina, we were excited to support their very complimentary add-on acquisition of Saugatuck Kitchens, LLC. Saugatuck is a transformative add-on acquisition by Catalina, as it diversifies their food product lines outside of Cuban and Caribbean cuisine. It adds the Northeast US region to their customer distribution base and provides significant cross-sell opportunities," said Thom Karle, Senior Vice President, O2 Sponsor Finance.
