Calder Capital is pleased to announce that C&K Box and Mulch Wholesalers of Jackson, MI have been acquired by an individual investor. Founded in 1960, C&K Box manufactures wood packaging products such as pallets, skids, crates, boxes, corner posts, stakes, and custom products tailored to clients’ needs. C&K Box has been owned by the Stevens family for several decades, and Mulch Wholesalers was established by second-generation owner Mark  Stevens in 1995 as a method to minimize waste produced by C&K Box. The two companies share a unique synergistic relationship. The Companies were acquired by Dustin Ruth. Dustin has years of experience in business management, business ownership, and sales. “The symbiotic relationship of these two companies immediately stood out to me,” commented Dustin about the acquisition. “It’s rare to find two companies that are able to reduce waste and optimize sustainability so effectively.  I’m excited to take it even further.” After 46 years of involvement with C&K Box, the Stevens family is ready to take a step back. The family engaged with Calder Capital at the end of 2020 to find the right buyer for the Companies, either separately or as a package. Sam Scharich and Ghazey Aleck, Mergers and Acquisitions […]
