Berlin Packaging acquires Juvasa Group
Berlin Packaging has acquired the Juvasa Group, a group of companies focused on the supply of glass, plastic, and metal packaging for the food and beverage industry, its sixth acquisition in EMEA (Europe, Middle East, and Africa) during 2021.
Founded in 1987, this family-owned business began when the founder, Juan Valle Santos, needed to source glass jars to market his honey.
Today, the Juvasa Group is led by Jesús Valle Sánchez, the founder’s son, and is a leading supplier of bottles and jars for olive oil, wine, spirits, sauces, vegetable preserves, honey, and more.
Based in Sevilla, Spain, and with locations throughout Spain, Portugal, and the Canary Islands, the Juvasa has an extensive commercial presence and logistical capabilities. All employees and locations will be retained.
"With the addition of the Juvasa Group, Berlin Packaging is by far the largest packaging distributor in Iberia, a crucial market in Europe. More importantly, our combination with the Juvasa Group allows us to offer even more products and services to our customers, helps our suppliers continue to grow their businesses, and creates more career opportunities for our employees,” said Paolo Recrosio, CEO of Berlin Packaging, EMEA.
“The addition of the Juvasa Group continues our efforts to expand our presence in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa,” said Bill Hayes, Berlin Packaging’s Global CEO and President. “This partnership also enhances our already formidable design capabilities, with design studios located in the United States, Italy, the Netherlands, and now Spain.”
