It sounds like to me that somebody bought...or bought in to the company and kept Rich around. Either for his expertise or name?
That is what I got from that vid.Gone but not forgotten, I remember you too Dookie!

Since he’s being quoted as part of the team in the press release, it seems that Rich Gaspari will remain active with the company.
However, due to the previous restructuring and a major amount of layoffs, Gaspari Nutrition is currently a shell of its former self. It will be interesting to see how or if they bounce back, if new products are ever going to come, and what role Rich will play.
Our take?
The plus side is that this industry is constantly growing, and “a rising tide lifts all ships”. With the Gaspari brand name recognition, there will always be money to be made for Gaspari. We feel that the company will be used to offer a standard set of products, and Allegro will use this as a cash cow in their existing distribution chain.
From a consumer’s standpoint, the company will likely go the way of EAS after Abbott International acquired them – you’ll see the products around, but there will be minimal marketing in your face. The products will likely be stocked wherever Allegro already goes, driving their bottom line and bringing profitable revenue to the company.
Some crazy Gaspari deals in the process
What’s cool is that since the news broke about Gaspari’s sale, there have been some incredible price drops on their previous generation of products.

Definitely a Gaspari fan. First reviewed his products in 2007. Won a prize package for my efforts.

I'm glad they sold it. Hopefully now they will put some good stuff out rather than bull shit kitchen sink formula they've been doing for years. Seriously how fucking hard is it to make a good pre-workout, intra-workout, and post-workout. And protein is not complicated but for the love of god stop it with that whey concentrate bullshit. You don't use a 2G phone anymore and neither should you been using whey concentrate in your product and sell it for $60 a container.

I was told at the Olympia by one of their top west coast reps that the company was not sold.
One of their investors put in more money to "save" the company.
Rich is not only still involved but he is still the majority owner.CutlerAthletics.com

And here's a quote from the link Curt posted.
It looks like they have just been sold — or at least have received a massive amount of investment.[1] The investor is Allegro Nutrition LLC, which is part of Allegro Ltd., a major global marketing and sales distribution company based out of Ireland.[2]Last edited by Sandpig; 10-17-2014 at 06:53 AM.

glad you said it before i did....gaspari has put out a bunch of crappy products for awhile now, they might be a large company compared to a lot of supplement companies but i honestly don't know anyone who goes to the store looking for gaspari products because most of them are nothing special
