Tru Fru will operate as an independent business and continue to be led by CEO, Brian Neville.
According to Neville, Mars shares a passion for healthier snacking and has the capabilities to take their company to the next level.
The transaction is subject to customary regulatory approvals and is expected to close in the first quarter of 2023.
Headquartered in West Valley City, Utah, with approximately 50 employees,
Trü Frü’s snacks are available in frozen and shelf-stable formats in US retailers.
