Sargento Foods acquired California-based La Terra Fina, a provider of dips, spreads and quiches. As privately held entities, Sargento and La Terra Fina will not disclose any financial details of the sale. We will continue this legacy, by growing the La Terra Fina brand and welcoming new members of the Sargento Family." Founded in 1983, La Terra Fina is based in Union City, Calif., with approximately 250 employees. Sargento puts people first, just as we do," said Stephen Cottrell, La Terra Fina President and CEO.
