Deloitte Legal assists Nipro PharmaPackaging International NV with the acquisition of Piramida d.o.o.

Deloitte Legal is proud to have assisted Nipro PharmaPackaging International NV with the acquisition of Piramida d.o.o. from the local private equity fund, Blue Sea Capital.

Nipro PharmaPackaging International NV is a leading global manufacturer and supplier of comprehensive packaging solutions for the pharmaceutical industry, headquartered in Mechelen (Belgium).
