P&D Group

P&D Group is a Dutch holding company specializing in the packaging and disposables industry. Headquartered in Veenendaal, the company operates as a consolidator, pursuing a 'buy-and-build' strategy to acquire and integrate complementary businesses within the packaging sector. This strategy began in September 2017 under the ownership of MKB Fonds and has since been continued by H2 Equity Partners, which acquired the group.

The group's business model focuses on acting as a multi-niche player in the distribution and manufacturing of packaging materials, disposables, and related machinery. Its portfolio consists of various specialized companies, each with a distinct market focus, including trading companies for packaging materials and machines, producers of printed tape and cutlery pouches, and distributors of disposables. By bundling the specific expertise of its individual firms, P&D Group offers comprehensive solutions to a diversified customer base. The company provides expert advice on the efficient use of packaging materials to help clients optimize their business processes.

Through its strategic acquisitions, the group has steadily expanded its portfolio. Key acquisitions include Hodi Verpakkingsmaterialen and Hodi International (September 2017), Pacoma Europe (January 2018), Van Vliet Trading (May 2018), Uniek Verpakkingen (July 2018), Beta Verpakking (September 2020), Laro Tape (December 2021), Jan Van Groningen (March 2023), De Boer Vrachtbescherming (August 2023), Mupla Verpakkingen (September 2023), and Holland Special Packaging (February 2024).
