“The addition of Go Veggie adds a profitable pre-existing US platform that will enable us to launch our most innovative and unique brands into the US under the expert leadership of one of the most respected people in the US natural food industry,” 

Rick Antonelli, CEO of Galaxy, said: “We’ve been watching GreenSpace for years and have admired the stable of brands they’ve been able to put together in such a short time. 

“We feel that Go Veggie is a perfect addition to that roster of strong brands and with the potential synergies of our team selling their products, and their team selling our products, there’s a significant long term upside for both.”

The acquisition is scheduled to close in January.
