Reach Group, the distribution arm of Mediahuis Ireland, has acquired Delpac Ltd, an Irish supplier to fashion and retail chains and to the hospitality sector of custom branded bags, gift wrapping and customised disposable coffee cups. Reach Group is best known as the country’s biggest newspaper and magazine distributor, one of a number of logistics and supply chain services it operates in a variety of sectors. Reach managing director Ian Keogh said the Delpac acquisition is a logical extension of its existing business. ”This acquisition is a very exciting development for Reach as it enables us to offer a broader range of bespoke products to our customers,” he said. I look forward to working closely with the team at Reach to identify and exploit the many opportunities which exist to grow the Reach-Delpac business in the future.”The former Independent News & Media (INM) rebranded as Mediahuis Ireland earlier this month, following a sale to the Antwerp headquartered Mediahuis group two years ago.
