Tetra Pak acquires Miteco

Tim High, executive vice president, Tetra Pak Processing Systems, said, “The acquisition of Miteco positions Tetra Pak as a world leader in production solutions for carbonated soft drinks, with an unrivalled product portfolio backed by strong technical support and broad geographic presence. It also extends the company’s beverage production capabilities in a number of key areas, including sugar handling, dissolving, refining, mixing and blending beverage ingredients, providing an important complement to our existing portfolio of processing solutions.”

Established in 1982, Miteco is a privately held company with 70 employees across sites in Switzerland, Italy, UK and South America.

The acquisition by Tetra Pak will extend Miteco’s current global reach. Tetra Pak has established its business presence in more than 170 countries worldwide.

Guillermo Fernandez, sales and operations director, Miteco, said, “This deal will allow the Miteco business to continue to grow. Tetra Pak’s global presence, plus the combined knowledge and skills of our two companies, promise improved solutions and better services for both existing and future customers worldwide.”
