Hearthside Food Solutions is buying assets of the cookies, crackers, cones and wafers division of Weston Foods, which includes six North American bakery facilities. The acquisition expands the Hearthside to 43 production facilities in the US, Canada and Europe.

Baking is one of Hearthside’s four primary production categories, along with bars, fresh and frozen entrees, and food packaging, the company said.

“The Weston acquisition is an ideal complement to our existing production network and business, bringing baking capacity, a roster of premier customers, expanded capabilities, and enhanced geographic coverage,” said Chuck Metzger, Hearthside CEO.
