Commenting on the new partnership, CPL’s Managing Director Paul Murphy, said the following: “We have seen incredible growth in CPL over the past few years and to help with this continual success I wanted a quality product that could be sold and maintained by us without impacting our production. I was impressed with the Almac product and its quality. Once I visited the factory and met the Almac team my mind was made up, Almac is a perfect fit in the CPL portfolio and I’m really excited for 2022 and beyond‘’.
