Kingsford Products Co., owner of the Charcoal brand and wholly owned subsidiary of The Clorox Co., Oakland, Calif., reached a multi-year agreement with CBQ, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Carl Buddig & Co., Homewood, Ill., to produce Kingsford’s branded pre-cooked ribs and barbecue entrées.
“Kingsford is a highly respected brand across categories with exceptional consumer awareness. This partnership is a natural fit for Buddig, as we continue to grow our product line of fresh, great-tasting meats,” says Tom Buddig, executive vice president of Carl Buddig. “We’re excited to expand our line of pre-cooked barbecued ribs and entrées under the Kingsford brand while continuing to drive synergies with their barbecue sauces, flavored charcoal and grilling products.”
