HOUSTON — Sunny Sky Products announced Jan. 3 the acquisition of dispensed beverage manufacturer AMFOTEK.

AMFOTEK is a developer and manufacturer of dispensed beverages – with specialization in powder-based products, including hot chocolates, cappuccinos, smoothies, teas, and lemonades. AMFOTEK serves a customer base across the foodservice and convenience store channels.

“AMFOTEK’s product line and customer base is a perfect complement to Sunny Sky’s. We already have a large customer base in powdered dispensed beverages, and this acquisition will solidify our leadership position in this space,” said W. Ashley Edens, President & CEO of Sunny Sky Products. “AMFOTEK’s manufacturing facility outside of Chicago will also give us added manufacturing flexibility and allow us to reduce transportation time to many of our customers.”
