UBEECO Packaging Solutions Acquires Boxpack Packaging
The UBEECO Group is pleased to announce that the Boxpack and JC Gilmores businesses are merging so we may offer a single source supply of packaging, and cardboard products to our valued customer base.
UBEECO Packaging Solutions (www.ubeeco.com.au) and Boxpack (www.boxpack.com.au) on 1 November 2021 have reached an agreement for UBEECO Packaging Solutions to acquire the assets of The Box Pack Trust, operating as Boxpack Packaging (Boxpack).
A continuation of The UBEECO Group’s strategic positioning in the industrial packaging market
This acquisition, which is effective from 1 November 2021, follows other recent similar expansion events by UBEECO and is a continuation of The UBEECO Group’s strategic positioning in the industrial packaging market in Australia.
UBEECO™ Packaging Solutions has been established as a leading supplier in the industrial packaging sector for more than 50 years. The acquisition of Boxpack will further position the UBEECO strategic and service model. It adds to a full complement of high-value cardboard packaging products to the industrial packaging products offered by UBEECO and expands the customer base throughout Australia.
Current sales and accounts contacts will remain unchanged, so it will be business as usual for us, at Boxpack, but we do have some new offerings going forward. Boxpack and UBEECO™ businesses are looking forward collaborating to expand our product offerings and geographical reach to our customers throughout Australia.
