Aventis advised Impresta on its sale to Van De Velde Packaging. Impresta is a Polish manufacturer of paper and cardboard packaging for the food industry. Van De Velde Packaging is a family-owned business that has been serving the food packaging needs of clients in Europe for over 50 years.

Background

Impresta, a Polish manufacturer of paper and cardboard packaging for the food industry, was founded by Tadeusz Rybczyk. The founder wanted an exit allowing him to retire and step back from daily operations.

The Challenge

The founder had not actively explored M&A options, and no buyers had approached the company. Aventis Advisors took the first steps to initiate a structured sale process by identify suitable buyers.

Transaction

Aventis Advisors supported Impresta throughout the sale process by:

• Conducting outbound outreach to a targeted group of strategic buyers
• Helping the founder evaluate transaction structures and select the best option
• Creating competition among buyers to achieve a strong valuation
• Managing the process to closure despite pandemic-related challenges
• Securing Van De Velde Packaging, a Belgian leader in food packaging, as the buyer

Outcome

The sale allowed the founder to retire, achieving a financial exit while ensuring business continuity under Van De Velde’s ownership. Impresta is now poised for growth within a larger, established company.

Looking Ahead

The acquisition positions Impresta for future success, leveraging Van De Velde Packaging’s resources and market presence.
