In July 2009, QFIB played a vital role since then in cementing ENPI’s position as a player in the plastic packaging solutions industry.
The company streamlined the business, institutionalised operations and expanded ENPI’s manufacturing base to include Abu Dhabi and Saudi Arabia.
QFIB CEO Emad Mansour said ENPI represents the typical size and sector that the company targets in its investment strategy, and the company worked with it to implement strategic growth plans and streamline its operations.
"Our successful exit of ENPI is a testament to our ability to grow our portfolio companies, in spite of difficult market conditions, while generating sound returns for our investors," Mansour said.
