Nordipack A/S, a Danish packaging manufacturer, has been facing financial difficulties with declining profits and modest revenue growth and the family-owned business was recently forced to let the private equity firm Tora PE Partners invest in the firm to raise new capital and to help turn the negative financial performance around. After Tora PE Partners acquired a stake in Nordipack, the PE fund initiated a major restructuring, including appointing a new CEO and CFO. The new CFO, Alex Pontoppidan, is tasked with creating financial transparency across product markets, regions, and customers to inform the future strategic direction of Nordipack.
