Sacramento, CA – DCA Partners (“DCA”) is pleased to announce that Calvada Food Sales, a second-generation, family-owned and -led business, has been acquired by Corfini Meat & Seafood, a leader in high-quality, “nose-to-tail” proteins across the Western U.S. This strategic partnership expands the regional distribution of premium meats and seafood throughout Northern California and Nevada, combining Corfini’s chef-driven, high-quality meat and seafood sourcing with Calvada’s deep-rooted customer relationships and trusted wholesale presence.
As a multigenerational, family-run business, Calvada sought a strategic partner that could support its growth and product innovation goals while preserving the legacy built by the Mackey family and its dedicated employees for nearly 60 years.
“It was essential for us to find a partner that not only aligned with our company values but also had the resources and expertise to support our long-term vision,” said TJ Mackey, President of Calvada. “Calvada’s focus on top-quality products and service is a perfect match for Corfini’s mission. Together, we’ll expand our reach and deliver greater value to customers across the region.”
“This partnership represents a shared commitment to integrity, innovation, and elevating the standard for responsibly sourced, premium proteins in the regional supply chain,” said Brent Haapanen, who led the transaction on behalf of DCA. “John DeBenedetti and the team at Corfini were the perfect choice to continue the legacy that the Mackey family started nearly six decades ago.”
Calvada Food Sales will continue to operate under its established brand and will benefit from the operational infrastructure and expanded product offering provided by Corfini. The combined platform is positioned to deliver an unparalleled product offering and level of service to customers throughout Northern California and Nevada.
