Americas: Menasha acquires Canadian packaging company

Menasha Corporation has acquired Canadian family-owned Portable Packaging Systems.

The acquired company will operate as part of Menasha Packaging Canada L.P., a subsidiary of Menasha Corporation.

The terms of the transaction were not disclosed.

Like Menasha Packaging, Portable Packaging designs promotional packaging and displays for retailers and consumer packaged goods companies, and provides material sourcing, assembly, repacking, fulfillment and distribution services.

The two companies also focus on the food, household and personal care markets.

Founded in 1991, Portable Packaging employs more than 100 full-time employees and an average of 300 temporary workers per day at its Mississauga facility and at three customer-dedicated distribution centers in the greater Toronto area and one in Montreal.

It is the second Canadian acquisition for Menasha Corporation this year. In January, the company acquired PearceWellwood of Brampton, Ontario.
