Based in Glendale Heights, Ill., Kronos Foods is a manufacturer and distributor of gyro meat, pita, flatbread, filo products, hummus and sauces to food service customers in the United States and Canada.

We look forward to their support as we execute on an array of growth opportunities that are driven by innovative, market-leading new products such as KronoBroil premium gyros slices.”

Grey Mountain Partners invests at the small end of the middle-market in businesses across a range of industries and manages approximately $700 million of assets.
