Leading heat sealing specialist, Proseal, has extended its European reach with the appointment of a new distributor in France. France Food Packaging, Proseal’s first ever distributor in the country, will sell the full range of Proseal equipment, as well as offering customers the company’s technical support.

The appointment further lengthens Proseal’s global reach, which includes subsidiary companies in the United States and Australia, as well as agents in Holland, Chile, Dubai, Turkey, Spain, South Africa, Malaysia, Thailand, India and Ireland. This drive into overseas markets is meeting the on-going growth in demand for convenience foods, for which fast and efficient packing solutions are necessary.

“We are very happy to have become Proseal’s new distributor for France, and are looking forward to a successful partnership with them,” said Bruno Botelho, director at France Food Packaging. “While Proseal will gain more convenient access to an important market through our long-established industry connections, we will benefit from working with such a leading global brand.”

Based in Vendargues near Montpellier, France Food Packaging is a company specialising in packaging and labelling machinery, maintenance, training, spare parts, providing technical support for the whole of France.
