CCM Hockey
Joey Saputo's family office holds CCM Hockey, CF Montréal and Saputo dairy wealth — a Canadian operating-company family office.
CCM Hockey
Joey Saputo, son of Saputo Inc. founder Lino Saputo, acquired CCM Hockey from Birch Hill Equity Partners in 2021. The purchase reunited CCM with the family that built the largest Canadian dairy company, valued at roughly $12 billion (per The Globe and Mail, 2021). Saputo's family office — headquartered in Montreal — holds CCM alongside CF Montréal (Major League Soccer) and real estate assets. The family office invests across manufacturing and sports: CCM produces skates, sticks, and protective gear, serving NHL players and amateur leagues. CF Montréal operates as a standalone sports asset with stadium development ties. Saputo also maintains direct holdings in Saputo Inc. shares. The portfolio spans Canada, the United States, and select European markets through CCM's distribution channels. Team size and additional offices remain undisclosed. The Saputo family office has not publicly reported AUM or deployment figures. February 2023: CCM launched a rebranded skate line with expanded manufacturing in Canada and Asia (per the firm, February 2023). The structure differs from typical single-family offices: Saputo's office functions as an operating company platform, where CCM and CF Montréal are run as active businesses, not passive investments. Joey Saputo serves as executive chairman of CCM and president of CF Montréal, blurring the line between family office and holding company.
