Producer
Amcor plc (incl. Berry Global, post-merger)
Melbourne, Australia-based global flexible and rigid packaging company (NYSE: AMCR). On April 30, 2025, Amcor completed its all-stock acquisition of Berry Global Group for $8.4 billion — creating the world's largest flexible packaging company with ~$23 billion in anticipated annual revenue, 400+ facilities globally, and ~70,000 employees in ~140 countries. Amcor had previously acquired Bemis Company (2019, $6.8B). The combined Amcor+Berry entity holds dominant positions in frozen food LLDPE/LDPE packaging film for IQF vegetables, frozen meat, frozen seafood, and convenience foods. Berry had been a major US blown film producer with multiple facilities. Global flexibles represent ~60% of combined Amcor+Berry's business. Brands include Cryovac (via Sealed Air — separate company), Bemis, and many unbranded OEM films.

Did you know2025
Amcor plc — the world's largest flexible packaging company following the April 2025 Berry Global merger — simultaneously supplies frozen food LLDPE packaging film to the food industry AND is the world's largest supplier of pharmaceutical blister packaging, medical device packaging, intravenous bag film, and sterile packaging for surgical instruments. The same polymer film technology (barrier multilayer PE structures) that wraps IQF frozen peas serves as the substrate for pharmaceutical blister packs containing medications. Amcor+Berry's post-merger network supplies both the food supply chain and the healthcare supply chain globally — one company' film keeps food frozen and medicines sterile simultaneously. A supply disruption at Amcor's flexible film manufacturing would affect both sectors simultaneously.
Amcor ↗Origin2025
Amcor Limited was founded in 1860 in Melbourne, Australia as the Australian Paper Manufacturers company, originally a paper mill serving Australia's colonial economy. It pivoted to packaging in the 20th century and grew through aggressive acquisitions into a global packaging company. The acquisition pace accelerated dramatically: Amcor acquired Bemis Company (US flexible packaging) for $6.8B in 2019, and Berry Global (US rigid and flexible packaging) for $8.4B in an all-stock deal completing April 30, 2025. The combined Amcor+Berry entity -- $23B anticipated revenue, 400+ facilities, 70,000 employees in 140 countries -- is the result of a 165-year-old Australian paper mill becoming the world's largest packaging company through M&A rather than organic growth. The April 2025 Berry merger created the largest consolidation in flexible packaging history in a single transaction, concentrating food and medical packaging supply chain power in one Melbourne-headquartered company that most food industry buyers have never identified as a single supplier controlling multiple of their packaging formats.
