Pearson Acquires Goodman Packaging Equipment

Pearson Packaging Systems announced that it has signed an agreement finalizing the acquisition of Goodman Packaging Equipment, a Chicago-area based producer of top loading case packers.

The newly formed company will be led by Michael A. Senske, President and CEO of Pearson Packaging Systems and will operate out of Spokane, Washington under the Pearson Packaging Systems name, effective immediately. Pearson Packaging Systems will retain engineering, service, and sales support in the Chicago area.

"This is a tremendous opportunity for Pearson Packaging Systems to further leverage our commitment towards growing our business and providing a full spectrum of products to our customers," said Michael A. Senske. "Our goal is to provide the myriad of industries that we serve such as food, beverage, pharmaceutical, consumer durable goods, and personal care with end of line systems that are truly integrated. By acquiring Goodman Packaging Equipment, we expand our ability to give customers a well rounded product offering for their secondary packaging operations."

"We are pleased to be acquired by Pearson Packaging Systems; a company, similar to our company, with such a strong reputation for producing high quality equipment and then standing behind their product line," said Billy Goodman, President of Goodman Packaging Equipment. "For 35 years, Goodman Packaging has been committed to providing customer satisfaction through high quality design, manufacturing and customer service. I am confident our customers will be very pleased with Pearson and the complete end-of-line packaging solutions that we collectively now provide."
