Global flexible packaging and lidding films supplier KM Packaging is pleased to announce the establishment of an official business entity in Australia. In an important landmark in the company’s history, KM Packaging Services ANZ Pty Ltd has been incorporated in Sydney, New South Wales, as of December, 2022.

KM Packaging has been exporting to Australasia since 1996, and outside of the U.S., it is the company’s second biggest export market. As a result of continued growth and success, the KM business is now at a scale that can support this further international development, which is a key part of the company’s long term strategic growth plans.

“This expansion has been two years in the planning, and we are excited to build even stronger relationships with our partners and customers in the region,” said John Shipley, KM’s business unit director for the Australian and European markets. “The move will allow us to explore new opportunities right across the chilled, frozen and ambient ready meal, convenience and fresh produce, and protein sectors.”

Supporting the initiative, Tammy Spencer has been appointed as business unit manager (ANZ) based on the Gold Coast in Queensland. Spencer has a wealth of experience and was most recently business manager - Packaging & Polymers (QLD) with TCL Hofmann and previously with Multivac.

“KM has always had a strong reputation in the ANZ market. Customers spoke highly of their service and quality, so I knew they were a business with a strong customer focus and core values that I admire,” Spencer said.
