==History==
The Bumble Bee company began in 1899 when seven salmon canners in Astoria, Oregon, formed the Columbia River Packers Association (CRPA) under the leadership of A. B. Hammond.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= All About Bumble Bee )〕 The Bumble Bee brand was introduced in 1910.〔 The CRPA incorporated in 1924, and in 1946, Transamerica acquired a controlling interest in CRPA, Inc.〔 After partnering with Wards Cove Packing Company in 1959, CRPA became the world's largest salmon packer.〔 In 1961, Castle & Cooke acquired CRPA by merger and changed the name of the company to Bumble Bee Seafoods after its most famous brand.〔
Since the mid-1980s, Bumble Bee has gone through a number of ownership changes, beginning with Castle & Cooke's sale of Bumble Bee in a leveraged buyout to management in 1985. The management team, having paid off their leveraged debt before their 5-year goal, sold Bumble Bee to Pillsbury in 1988 contingent upon the president, Patrick Rose, and the management team staying on for five years,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Bumble Bee Seafoods L.L.C. History )〕 Pillsbury in turn, following its December 1988, hostile takeover by Grand Metropolitan PLC, was forced to sell the brand the next year to the Thai company Unicord. Bumble Bee went bankrupt in 1997, and was sold to International Home Foods, the former food unit of American Home Products. ConAgra Foods acquired International Home Foods in 2000; it sold Bumble Bee to the private equity firm Centre Partners in 2003. The Canadian company Connors Brothers Limited merged with Bumble Bee in 2004. The company was renamed Bumble Bee Foods, LLC in 2005.〔 Centre Partners acquired the company again in 2008 and sold it to Lion Capital in 2010.
