The Colour Carton Company to Completes The Acquisition of The Central Box Company

The Colour Carton Company (CCC) which is a part of the UPAC Group, will acquire the solid board and litho/lam division of the East Kilbride manufacturer, The Central Box Company (CBC).

The CCC specialises in box manufacturing, print, assembly and contract packaging.

With the acquisition, the UPAC Group plans to offer a single source solution for packaging customers across the UK and also provide an optimal platform to the CCC to launch itself.

Being a part of the UPAC Group, the CCC will receive an investment fund of £500,000, apart from an experienced team equipped exclusively for product promotion and sales.

Based out of Rutherglen, the UPAC Group is an organisation of specialist suppliers in packaging. It is formed from multiple companies specialising in all aspects of the packaging industry, including polythene specialists, merchants and label manufactures.

Allan Cochrane from Boxes and Packaging has been appointed as the managing director. Kite Packaging Scotland's managing director Mike McCole will be acting as the commercial director and Iain Stephen of CBC will function as the sales director.

WMW managing director Chris Kelly said: "These are certainly exciting times for the UPAC Group. As a merchant who is taking a degree of control over our own supply chain, we at the UPAC Group see this as a blueprint for further acquisitions down the line and are confident this will benefit both supplier and consumer alike."
