SG Credit Partners, through its consumer products division, made a senior debt investment in Mezcla, the New York-based maker of the puff-crispy plant protein bar. The investment was made in connection with Mezcla’s recently closed Series B round led by Bluestein Ventures and will support working capital needs as the company continues to accelerate retail expansion nationwide.
“We needed a capital partner who understood where we’re going, and SG got it from day one,” Griffin Spolansky, founder and CEO of Mezcla, said. “Their flexibility and deep experience in consumer brands made them the right fit as we scale distribution and bring our bars to more shelves nationwide.”
Evan Waggoner, director at SG Credit Partners, added, “Mezcla has built an exceptional brand in a competitive category by putting flavor first and letting the nutrition speak for itself. We’re excited to support the team as they continue to grow their retail presence and introduce more consumers to what they’ve built.”
