HedgeCo.Net \u2014 Butterfly Equity announced on September 22, 2026 that it has entered a definitive agreement to acquire Sabert Holding Corp., a Sayreville, New Jersey manufacturer of plastic, paper, and molded-fiber food packaging, according to the firm\u2019s Business Wire release and corroborating Packaging Dive and Kirkland & Ellis advisory notes. Financial terms were not disclosed. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions and is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2026.<\/p>\n
Founder and executive chairman Albert Salama will remain a meaningful minority investor after closing. Packaging Dive reports Sabert employs about 3,000 people across 13 manufacturing facilities globally, including nine in the U.S., and previously acquired U.K. packager Colpac. Butterfly, a Los Angeles food-and-beverage specialist, said the deal advances its packaging vertical after acquiring digitally printed flexible-packaging firm ePac earlier in 2026.<\/p>\n
For PE allocators tracking food-system packaging platforms, the sourced marks are the definitive agreement, Q4 2026 close target, Salama rollover, headcount\/facility footprint, and the ePac adjacency. Purchase price, leverage, and EBITDA multiples were not published and must not be invented.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
