Weepackup strengthens its Swiss presence with a strategic acquisition in the canton of Neuchâtel

Made-to-measure industrial packaging expert Weepackup takes a key step in its international development with the acquisition of CDF Emballage in the canton of Neuchâtel.

Weepackup, the French specialist in made-to-measure industrial packaging, has strengthened its presence in Switzerland with the acquisition of CDF Emballage, a company based in the canton of Neuchâtel. This operation marks a strategic turning point for the company, which consolidates its position in the Swiss market and extends its opportunities to Germany and Northern Italy.

Founded over 70 years ago, Weepackup stands out for its mastery of the transformation of wood, cardboard and foam to create packaging solutions adapted to demanding sectors such as aeronautics, defense, medical and electronics. With over EUR 20 million in sales and 90 employees at five production sites, the company offers a global approach incorporating environmentally-friendly solutions.

An international vision

Operating in Switzerland since 2021 thanks to the support of GGBa, Weepackup continues to expand with the acquisition of CDF Emballage. “This acquisition is in line with history, particularly for my son Thomas, who initiated the Swiss adventure and plays a key role in our international development,” explains Jacques Grégoire, President of Weepackup.

This new entity, located in Neuchâtel, will serve as a forward-looking base to respond effectively to customer needs in Switzerland, while opening up opportunities in neighboring markets.

The acquisition of CDF Emballage is part of an ambitious growth strategy. In parallel with its Swiss expansion, Weepackup is exploring other opportunities, notably in North-West France. This strategy reinforces proximity to customers, an essential criterion in the industrial packaging sector.
