They assume the smaller brands have healthier products, and are better for the environment. A lot of these smaller brands are making a lot of money in America, the land of hot-dogs and french-fries; by telling us that they are all natural organic brands.
Many of these niche companies sell excellent products that will help you live a healthy, happy long life. But as these firms popularity and profits grew,… someone was watching
Healthy, environmentally aware brands have seen huge sales growth in recent years, and big names like Coca-Cola, General Mills and Perdue all want a piece of the action.
What happened next is the big secret no one’s talking about. Capitalizing on the names these smaller specialty companies had built up over time; huge, colossal companies such as Hormel, PepsiCo, Kelloggs and others simply purchased the smaller companies with massive amounts of cash.
