Nexgen Packaging continues its African expansion by establishing headquarters in Kenya
In partnership with Contech Container Technology Ltd., Nexgen is establishing a sustainable footprint in Kenya by using "upcycled" shipping containers as the base of three facilities being constructed. Within these facilities, Nexgen will have the ability to produce and/or deliver packaging products including care labels, heat transfers, variable data products (including RFID tags and stickers), brand identification products, woven labels and other packaging offerings.
"We could not be more excited about the opportunity to establish our African headquarters in Kenya ," said Manuel Torres , Managing Director for Nexgen's EMEA operations.
