“They have an excellent track record of great service and long-standing customer relationships, some of which have spanned over five decades.”
Brook + Whittle operation senior vice-president Jeremy Letterman said: “The addition of five in-house pouch lines and bag making capabilities pushes us into new markets and positions us to deliver custom flexible packaging at industry-leading lead-times.
