DETROIT - CuisineWire -- Calder Capital is pleased to announce the successful acquisition of Midwest Juice, headquartered in Grand Rapids, MI, by Leonard's Syrups, based in Detroit, MI.

Founded in 1998, Midwest Juice has grown into a premier distributor of juice, soda, coffee, and thickened water across the Midwest from its two locations in Grand Rapids and Livonia. Seeking a transition into retirement, the Founder of Midwest Juice engaged Calder Capital's Sell-Side team

The buyer, Leonard's Syrups, is a Detroit-based beverage service provider that specializes in artisan soda and shelf stable fruit juices. Leonard's was represented in the acquisition by Lucas Iskra, Vice President of Business Development.

Leading the transaction on behalf of Calder Capital was Scott Nicholson, Mergers & Acquisitions Advisor.

After launching to market on September 4, the Calder Capital team distributed CIMs to 91 qualified buyers, resulting in 3 competitive offers. An LOI was accepted by February 19, and the transaction successfully closed on April 1, bringing the deal to completion in just under seven months. Calder's ability to identify and vet quality buyers ensured a strong fit and exceptional value for the seller.
