Blue Moose of Boulder

All-natural dips and spreads, including hummus, salsas, cheese spreads and pestos, sold under the Blue Moose and Ciolo brands.

A subsidiary of the Sartori Company, a leading national provider of artisanal cheeses, Blue Moose of Boulder sells its products to natural, conventional, and club stores, as well as to selected food service accounts. Blue Moose has received numerous awards for its innovative products. The acquirer was DWF Capital Holdings, whose leadership includes Ed Shirley (former CEO of Bacardi and former Vice Chair of Procter & Gamble) and Dan Fink (previously on the executive and board levels of Bacardi and Richelieu Foods).

“Given its strong growth prospects, we decided that Blue Moose needed additional talent and resources outside of Sartori’s core business. We remain excited about the business and will maintain a significant minority ownership stake. Integris got us a terrific result in finding a partner aligned with our values that wanted to continue to operate the business in Colorado.” – Bert Sartori, General Manager of Blue Moose.
