“Our new name reflects our history and better positions us to strengthen our brands in the marketplace,” said CEO Chris Kiser.

Sager Creek Acquisitions Corp., a vehicle backed by investment funds managed by Sankaty Advisors and GB Credit Partners, acquired Allens after a bankruptcy auction.

Allens filed for relief under Chapter 11 last October. Another US canned foods group, Seneca Foods, was named as a stalking horse bidder for Allens in December.
