Veritiv Operating Company, a provider of speciality packaging distribution, facility solutions and print products, has acquired Packaging Solutions, a supplier of customised packaging products and services across southern California. 

Financial terms of the transaction remain undisclosed. 

Alston & Bird was legal adviser to Veritiv on the transaction. 

The deal represents an expansion of Veritiv’s operations in the southern California market, through the integration of Packaging Solutions’ offerings. 

Veritiv CEO Sal Abbate stated:  "This acquisition is another investment in building on our industry-leading speciality packaging distribution capabilities by strengthening our reach and ability to serve customers in southern California.  

"Packaging Solutions brings to Veritiv a well-established customer base in the region and represents our continued efforts to expand our national platform to better serve customers by combining the strength and scale of Veritiv with the entrepreneurial spirit of smaller, well-run family businesses.  

“We look forward to welcoming Packaging Solutions' employees, customers and suppliers to the Veritiv team as we continue delivering innovative and sustainable products and services to meet our customers' most complex supply chain needs." 

Packaging Solutions owner and CEO John Tree stated: “Our team has a more than 20-year history of serving businesses throughout Southern California by delivering end-to-end packaging solutions to meet their design, production and logistics needs. 

"Joining Veritiv enables us to leverage the company's established commercial infrastructure, packaging procurement and distribution expertise, and enhanced design and testing capabilities to better serve our customers." 

In September 2025, Veritiv acquired Subotnick Packaging, based  in the US state of Oregon.

Subotnick is a distributor of packaging products and equipment. 

In the same month, Veritiv purchased the packaging distribution division of S Walter Packaging. 

Established in 1904, S Walter offers custom packaging solutions to the retail, hospitality, food and beverage, and fashion markets. 

With 110 employees, it operates facilities in Trevose and Shoemakersville, Pennsylvania.
