Firm recruits Peter Burns, former president and CEO of Justin's Nut Butter
CAVU Venture Partners, a VC and growth equity firm started by CPG veterans known for backing and building iconic consumer brands, announced that it has made a significant investment in ISS Research, LLC. CAVU managing partners Brett Thomas and Rohan Oza will join the Company's board of directors to help capitalize on the popularity of the ONE® Bar, a nutrition snack bar packed with 20 grams of protein while containing only one gram of sugar.
Based on ONE Bar's early success and potential for creating a platform for the snack nutrition market, the CAVU team recruited industry veteran Peter Burns to become the Company's President and CEO. Burns will be based out of the company's Boulder, CO office and serve alongside founder and CEO Ron McAfee, Jr. to drive growth.
