DS Waters of America Inc., an Atlanta-based provider of bottled drinking water under Crystal Springs and other brands, said Wednesday it has completed its deal to be acquired by funds advised by Crestview Partners, a New York private equity firm.
Financial terms were not disclosed but DS Waters, which also produces brewed beverages and supplies water filtration systems, will continue to be based in Atlanta. The deal was announced in July.
The company said it will continue to growth both organically and through acquisitions, and it will continue to build its national distribution network.
Last month, DS Waters announced it was acquiring the office coffee and water filtration service divisions of Everett, Wash.-based Cascade Coffee Inc. Cascade produces the Compass Creek coffee brand and mainly serves the Pacific Northwest.
DS Waters said it serves more than a million homes, offices, restaurants, food service organizations, convenience stores and retail locations. In addition to Crystal Springs, its brands include Alhambra, Athena, Belmont Springs, Deep Rock, Hinckley Springs, Kentwood Springs, Mount Olympus, Nursery Water, Sierra Springs and Sparkletts.
