Pinnacle Foods assembled a portfolio of established American food brands including Birds Eye, Duncan Hines and Vlasic, largely under private equity ownership, before Conagra acquired it in 2018.
Conagra acquired Pinnacle Foods in a cash and stock deal, adding Birds Eye, Duncan Hines and Vlasic. Conagra sold its Wesson oil brand to satisfy competition concerns, and Pinnacle had been an acquisition target for several years before the deal closed.
Pinnacle Foods controlled these 4 brands in the past. Each row shows when the ownership ended and who holds the brand now, so a page that once said Pinnacle Foods owned it still shows why it no longer does.
