On Friday, Envoy Solutions announced it had acquired Bristol, Pa.-based United Packaging.
United Packaging, a distributor of high-quality packaging, shipping, safety, and janitorial supplies, would allow Envoy, based in Glenview, Ill., to expand its geographical footprints into the Northeast, where it already has a strong presence, as well as expand its packaging capabilities, the company said.
“It’s exciting to see the significant growth in our packaging capabilities, and United Packaging will help us continue building that momentum,” said Mark M. Fisher, CEO of Envoy Solutions. “With United Packaging and our existing companies in Pennsylvania, we are better positioned than ever to create greater efficiencies for our clients to solve the industry’s toughest challenges in the Northeast and across the country.”
United Packaging was founded in 1992 and focuses on providing clients with solutions for efficient packaging. With the support of Envoy Solutions, the company will have access to new products and services while being part of a growing national platform, the company said.
“This is an incredible opportunity for our company to join forces with Envoy Solutions, a strong national partner and the gold standard in specialized distribution,” said Jeff Seidel, president and CEO of United Packaging. “With its differentiated business model, Envoy Solutions is redefining our industry by leveraging the capabilities of regional distributors to better serve clients. By joining Envoy Solutions, we will greatly expand our resources, deepen our category knowledge, and have a larger pool of customers from coast to coast.”
