US-based hybrid packaging supplier Berlin Packaging has acquired the Juvasa Group, a group of Spanish packaging companies, for an undisclosed amount.
Based in Sevilla, the Juvasa Group companies supply glass, plastic and metal packaging solutions for the food and beverage industry.
The business manufactures bottles and jars for olive oil, wine, spirits, sauces, vegetable preserves, honey and other products.
It also offers custom packaging design services through its in-house design studio, Avanza Packaging.
The Juvasa Group has operations in Spain, Portugal and the Canary Islands, as well as an online business.
Berlin Packaging Europe, Middle East and Asia (EMEA) CEO Paolo Recrosio said: “With the addition of the Juvasa Group, [we are] by far the largest packaging distributor in Iberia, a crucial market in Europe.
