Quick Facts Industry, Founded ...

With its founder Todd Lachman as its CEO, it is headquartered in Louisville, Colorado southeast of Boulder, Colorado. Having analyzed more than 200 brands since its founding,[1] the firm has focused on developing products and competing with large companies as it has rapidly acquired attention.

Rao's Homemade was 69 percent of Sovos' adjusted net sales in 2022, and its net sales in 2022 were 34.9% more than those in 2021.[2] Lachman said Sovos has done well during the current inflationary period; consumers have bought more consumer products as opposed to dining out.[3]

Campbell Soup Company had planned to buy Sovos for $2.7 billion by December 2023 however this deal was extended to 2024 to address questions from the FTC.[4] On March 12, 2024, Campbell's announced that it had completed its acquisition of the company.[5]
