C.H. Guenther & Son, Inc. acquires the Williams Foods Business

San Antonio, Texas March 14, 2008 - C.H. Guenther & Son, Inc. (CHG) announces its acquisition of Williams Foods, a leading producer of dry seasonings, mixes and meal enhancing products. The Williams business, which operates out of Lenexa, Kansas, produces a variety of products under its proprietary brands of Williams, Sun Bird and Country Store, as well as store brand labels for a variety of major retailers.

Dale W. Tremblay, President and CEO of CHG, complemented Mr. Conrad "Jim" Hock, owner of Williams Foods. "Jim and his team have done a tremendous job over the past 50-plus years in taking the Williams brand beyond its original niche in chili seasoning, and broadening the business across a multitude of brands and product offerings. We expect his company to be a very nice complement to our consumer business, which includes strong brands like Pioneer and White Wings."

In 1937, C.L. Williams started putting chili seasoning in small brown bags at his home in Webb City, Missouri. Mr. Hock acquired the business in 1963, and today has over 200 employees operating in three production facilities in the Lenexa area.

"I am very pleased to see this great company be merged into C.H. Guenther & Son. They have an incredible legacy of more than 157 years of private ownership and a commitment to quality and service. I look forward to working with Dale and his team as they take the Williams business to the next level."

Details of the transaction were not disclosed.
