MIAMI — Kaho Partners LLC, an investment firm focused on building companies through organic and acquisitions-driven growth, has formed Global Flavors Group. The Global Flavors Group platform aims to acquire and scale food manufacturers focused on international cuisine, according to the company.

Kaho said it chose to create this platform due to upward trends in global flavors. Through Global Flavors Group, Kaho said it is seeking to acquire food manufacturers in such areas as Hispanic, Asian, Indian and Mediterranean-inspired cuisine with headquarters in the United States and companies that profit less than $10 million.

“We are thrilled to launch Global Flavors Group after spending more than a year developing our thesis around US-based food manufacturers that deliver authentic international flavors to American consumers,” said Griffin Horter, founder of Global Flavors Group and managing partner of Kaho. “We have assembled a fantastic team of industry executives who will help us identify opportunities and drive value creation during our hold. We believe that the combination of our industry experience, leadership team, and longer-term orientation will allow us to build a market leader in this growing industry.”
