DENVER, Feb. 15, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- CREO Capital Partners, LLC announced today that it has closed on its fourth fund, CREO Capital Partners Fund IV, LP. With approximately $125 million in committed capital, the Fund was established to support CREO's "buy and build" investment strategy in the broader food and consumer space. Since 2005, CREO has completed over 20 acquisitions of middle market companies in the U.S. and in the U.K., including 18 in the food space. Its investment in Flagship Food Group, a diversified, global food business, dates back to 2007 and continues to be a critical platform business for the firm.
