MONTREAL—Quebec’s Supremex Inc., a manufacturer of stock and custom envelopes, packaging and specialty products, has acquired assets of Bowers Envelope Company Inc., in Indianapolis, Indiana.

“This acquisition, while relatively small, aligns with our strategy to extend our reach in key markets and to expand our value added offering in packaging and specialty products,” Stewart Emerson, president and CEO of Supremex, said. “Bowers Envelope is a well-known brand strategically located less than 300 kms from Chicago at ‘The Crossroads of America” in a robust envelope market and a major hub for e-commerce distribution.”
