Looking to start PE recruitment pretty soon and am particularly interested in trying to target PE firms in the CPG space. Anyone know of either a.) PE firms that have strong CPG arms or b.) MM PE firms solely focused in the consumer good/food & beverage space?
I found a few options through simple google searches but looking to see if the community here has any specific insights on firms to target.
Thanks in advance.

Those are probably the biggest players with a heavy portfolio in consumer and in no particular order. I'm sure I'm missing a few, but those were the few that immediately came to mind to me.
I'd add TSG consumer partners to this. They've backed several insurgent brands including Vitamin water, Nuun, Pop chips, and Voss (link)
Though likely not traditional buyout like the funds above with smaller checks ranging from $100M - $800M and open to minority positions.
Good list. Other consumer focused firms I'll add are:
Freeman Spogli & Co.
Sycamore Partners
Mill Road Capital
Kainos Capital
Brentwood Associates
Wind Point Partners
North Castle Partners
Take a look at VMG. Growth equity, but their portfolio speaks for itself.
