Foley & Lardner LLP served as legal advisor to The Killer Brownie® Company, the nation’s leading gourmet brownie company, in its strategic partnership with Irresistible Foods Group Inc. (IFG). Foley was proud to support the Mayne family and Killer Brownie in this important endeavor aimed at accelerating the growth of the Killer Brownie brand.
Killer Brownie is famous for the irresistibly indulgent flavors and textures of their premium brownies. Founded by Dorothy Lane Market CEO Norman Mayne in 1988, Killer Brownie originally sold in the three family-owned Dorothy Lane Market® stores in Ohio. In recent years, Killer Brownie has expanded from Dorothy Lane Market to grocery stores across the United States.
IFG is a family-owned house of brands including King’s Hawaiian, Grillo’s Pickles, Shaka Tea, Innovation Bakers, and the IFG Restaurant Group. Founded in 1950 in Hilo, Hawaii as a small bakery that became known as the King’s Hawaiian® Brand, today IFG is a family of authentic food and beverage brands that are beloved by consumers for their irresistible products.
The Foley team was led by partner Omar Lucia, senior counsel Arthur Vorbrodt, and associates Annemarie Ficarra and Michael Watkins.
