CDVCA is please to announce our follow-on investment in 88 Acres, a Canton, Massachusetts-based company co-founded and led by CEO Nicole Ledoux and President Rob Dalton. 88 Acres is a leader in the healthy snacks industry, offering allergy-friendly products made from high-quality, sustainable ingredients. Building on our initial investment in 2023, we are proud to deepen our commitment to the growth of this innovative company that provides a significant number of good jobs in a community facing substantial unemployment challenges. This latest Series B investment, made alongside fellow community development venture capital (CDVC) fund, Coastal Ventures V, supports 88 Acres’ strategic expansion and product development while advancing impact-driven entrepreneurship that generates meaningful employment opportunities for underserved populations.
