MOSCOW (MRC) -- Multinational packaging company Amcor has completed its acquisition of a flexible packaging plant in the Czech Republic, said the company.
Commissioned as a greenfield in 2019, the plant is fitted with advanced, specialised equipment to allow it to serve various segments, including coffee and pet food. In addition, the purchased land and buildings offer the capacity to expand the facility’s operations and establish a production hub at the site.
The strategically located site will allow Amcor to expand its capacity to serve high demand and customer growth across its flexible packaging network in Europe.
