Bunzl plc

Bunzl plc, the specialist international distribution and services Group, today announces that it has acquired two businesses.

In June, Bunzl completed the acquisition of Sistemas De Embalaje Anper, a distributor of industrial packaging to end-users in Spain. This business, which expands our product offering and geographical footprint, generated EUR 28 million (£24 million) of revenue in 2023.

In addition, Bunzl completed the acquisition of Holland Packaging. Based in the Netherlands, Holland Packaging is a distributor of bespoke and customised packaging products and supplies to e-commerce focused companies. The business generated EUR 16 million (£14 million) of revenue in 2023.

We are also pleased that the Group has now completed the previously announced acquisition of RCL Implantes, a distributor specialising in surgical and medical devices in Brazil.

Commenting on today’s announcement, Frank van Zanten, Chief Executive Officer of Bunzl, said:

“Today’s announcement highlights the strength of Bunzl’s continuing consolidation opportunity. The announced acquisitions are highly complementary to our existing businesses, expanding our product offering in Spain and the Netherlands, and have strong margins. I would like to offer a warm welcome to the teams from the newly acquired businesses to the Bunzl family. Our pipeline remains active and the strength of our balance sheet supports our ability to continue to self-fund value-accretive acquisitions alongside other capital allocation options.”
