GTCR will partner with CEO Kevin Keneally and the management team at PPC as they continue to grow the business and expand the company's suite of packaging solutions. As part of the transaction, GTCR expects to commit significant incremental equity to fund future acquisitions and expansion opportunities.

Founded in 2017 by Kevin Keneally, PPC has grown through acquisition and organic growth to become a leading provider of short- and medium-run flexible packaging solutions. The company is a recognized pioneer in cleanroom packaging for healthcare and medical applications and snack and organic brands, as well as specialty produce, pet, nutraceutical, bakery, and horticulture markets. PPC operates ten manufacturing facilities in the U.S. and South America.

"Kevin and the PPC team have built a remarkable business in a short period of time by acquiring differentiated packaging assets focused on attractive end markets," said GTCR Managing Director David Donnini. "We look forward to being partners with the PPC team and continuing their successful consolidation of high-quality flexible packaging companies."

"PPC is excited to partner with GTCR. We will continue to support our customers with exceptional service while expanding our product offering through innovation and acquisitions," said PPC CEO Kevin Keneally. "GTCR brings unique experience in building industry-leading companies and expects to commit additional capital to fund growth."
