For the transaction, OMNI Systems was represented by the Packaging Investment Banking Group of Mesirow and New Direction Partners.

OMNI Systems CEO and founder Adam DeFrancesco said: “We are in a prime position, being privately held, debt-free and our own platform company. Keeping the two companies’ plants in their locations and protecting the employees was key for us.

“Customers from both sides can benefit from a new, larger organisation with more capacity and expertise than ever before. ITW Labels is a legendary provider in our industry, and we are proud to welcome them into the OMNI Systems family.”

Headquartered in Cleveland, OMNI Systems produces thermal labels, top-coated direct thermal labels, thermal transfer labels, barcodes, custom labels and other label products for various industries.

In addition, the company also serves as a thermal media supplier to brands, including Amazon.com, Tyson and leading Fortune 500 companies.
