Inapa Group has come a long way since it was established, in 1965, as the first large-scale Portuguese paper mill.
At this moment, Inapa is a significantly different company compared to the one that was founded 55 years ago being fully prepared to meet the challenges of the market and expectations of the clients. The business focus and strategy have changed over the years and our geographic boundaries have expanded, positioning Inapa as a European leading Group in Paper, Packaging and Visual Communication.
Today, we are 1,838 employees serving, in 10 countries, more than 80 thousand clients, with our eyes set in the next 50 years!
We grew in volume and sales, improved our operational results and net profit and reduced the debt. In the strategic plan Inapa strengthened the partnership with key suppliers, completed the reorganization of the packaging business, performed the repositioning plan of our operation in Turkey, which justifies the achievement of the objectives set at the time of investment, and consolidated our operations in Angola.
