Eurazeo is pleased to announce it has completed a $25 million minority investment in Dewey's Bakery, a clean-label cookie and cracker manufacturer based in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. Eurazeo Brands, the division of Eurazeo focused on differentiated consumer brands with global growth potential, is investing alongside Chairman and majority owner Scott Livengood, and incoming Chief Executive Officer Mike Senackerib, who joins Dewey's Bakery as part of Eurazeo's investment.

Founded in 1930, Dewey's Bakery produces premium soft baked cookies, crisp cookie thins, and savory crackers featuring delicious, authentic, and bakery-inspired flavors. Dewey's is a leading manufacturer of custom-branded products for the largest food retailers in the US and an emerging national brand in natural, specialty, and mainline grocery channels.

Scott Livengood, Chairman of Dewey's Bakery, said:

"Dewey's could not be more excited to partner with Eurazeo Brands and Mike Senackerib on this new chapter of growth for our company. Dewey's has established a strong presence in both specialty food retailers and supermarkets across the country driven by our amazing products, capabilities, and team. With access to Eurazeo's deep resources and know-how, paired with Mike's proven leadership working on some of the most iconic brands in F&B, we aim to become a leader in our category in the years ahead."

Senackerib is a seasoned food and beverage executive and brings deep category operating expertise to Dewey's as CEO. Highly regarded as a leader and brand builder in the food industry, he has 30+ years of experience across a wide array of successful brands. Mike held senior executive and marketing roles at Nabisco (Mondelez), Kraft Foods, and Campbell Soup Company. He served as Senior Vice President and General Manager of Nabisco's portfolio of cookie and cracker brands, including Oreo's, Ritz, Wheat Thins, Triscuit, and others.
