Conagra is closing Boomchickapop's Minneapolis headquarters and moving the work to its Chicago and Omaha offices.
Packaged foods giant Conagra Brands Inc. bought Angie's Artisan Treats and its popular Boomchickapop popcorn brand in September for $250 million in cash.
At the time of the sale, Chicago-based Conagra declined to comment on the fate of its Minneapolis headquarters, but over the past several months the company has been quietly closing down Boomchickapop's Minneapolis headquarters.
Conagra spokeswoman Lanie Friedman confirmed it is moving the corporate functions to Chicago and Omaha.
At its peak, Angie's Boomchickapop employed between 50 and 60 people at its Minneapolis headquarters in the Loring Park neighborhood. On Thursday, only a few workers were still working at the office.
