Harris Williams Advises Inmark Packaging on its Investment from Kelso & Company

Harris Williams, a global investment bank specializing in M&A advisory services, announces it advised Inmark Packaging (Inmark), a portfolio company of Quad-C Management (Quad-C), on its investment from funds affiliated with Kelso & Company (Kelso). Inmark is a leading distributor of life sciences and rigid container packaging. The transaction was led by Patrick McNulty, Brad Morrison, Graham Rives and Dan Pate of the Harris Williams Industrials Group.

“There continues to be strong investor interest for high-quality assets in the packaging sector and we are excited to help deliver this successful outcome for Quad-C and Inmark,” said Brad Morrison, a managing director at Harris Williams. “What the Inmark team has built alongside Quad-C is truly impressive and we are excited to watch that continued success in partnership with Kelso.”

“Inmark is widely recognized throughout the packaging sector for its high-quality products, innovative packaging solutions and superior customer service,” said Graham Rives, a director at Harris Williams. “The company is poised to continue its growth trajectory and is well positioned to benefit from secular tailwinds in both life sciences and rigid packaging.”

For over 40 years, Inmark has been a trusted source for rigid container, temperature-controlled, specimen transport, used medical device and dangerous goods packaging. Headquartered in Atlanta, with locations in Europe, Asia and North America, Inmark has become a respected leader in developing packaging solutions for businesses globally.
