C.H. Guenther & Son announced it has acquired House-Autry Mills, a family-owned manufacturer of branded and custom dry-mix flavor solutions for foodservice, retail, and private-label customers.
Founded in 1812 and headquartered in Four Oaks, North Carolina, House-Autry runs specialized blending and packaging operations in North Carolina and Georgia. The portfolio spans breaders, batters, hushpuppy and biscuit mixes, seasonings, and related dry mixes.
CEO Rod Hepponstall framed the deal as complementary to CHG’s grain-based and frozen foodservice platform. Financial terms were not disclosed. The acquisition follows CHG’s purchases of Fresca Mexican Foods and Les Aliments Mejicano, expanding the company’s reach with many of the same QSR and foodservice accounts that buy tortillas.
