Golden West Packaging Group Acquires Allpak Container

 

Golden West Packaging Group LLC, a holding company for packaging businesses formed in 2017 by private investment firm Lindsay Goldberg (New York, N.Y., USA), on March 6 announced that it acquired Allpak Container, LLC, a Pacific Northwest-based packaging provider.

Terms of the deal were not disclosed.

Allpak Container designs and manufactures high-end consumer packaging and industrial packaging for more than 450 customers in agriculture, beauty, beverage, commerce, food, health, industrial, recreation, and wine and spirits markets. Allpak serves customers in Washington, Oregon, California, Idaho, Montana and British Columbia from its two facilities near Seattle and Spokane, Washington. The facilities serve high-end consumer markets with large scale die cut, six color plus UV coating, and highly customizable flexographic printing capabilities.

"Allpak is a strong business with a customer-centric approach, skilled workforce, and deep focus on operational excellence, which is evidenced by their ISO (International Organization for Standardization) and AIB International (food safety) certifications," said Steve Strickland, CEO of Golden West. "Golden West, which now operates nine manufacturing plants across the country, brings Allpak substantial resources and proven sales and service capabilities to drive more production through Allpak's facilities."

Allpak represents Golden West's third acquisition following its February 2017 acquisition of five Northern California-based packaging manufacturers (Cal Sheets, Capital Corrugated, Heritage Solutions, Packaging Innovators, and Package One), and its February 2018 acquisition of Southern California-based Fleetwood-Fibre Packaging & Graphics.
