The Bodo Möller Chemie Group Acquires Portuguese Distributor
The Bodo Möller Chemie Group has acquired the Portuguese distributor Anmapi, LDA. In doing so, the Offenbach-based supplier of specialty chemicals expands its own branch network on the Iberian Peninsula and, with Anmapi, acquires an established and experienced Henkel partner. With the acquisition, Bodo Möller Chemie expands its partnership with Henkel in the area of Bonderite® cleaners and corrosion-protection products for the metal industry in Southern Europe. Anmapi has customer relationships that have grown for decades, as well as an expertise in surface technology, and is considered a Bonderite specialist.
“By taking over Anmapi, we significantly expand the European business of our group and, moreover, acquire a partner that can be regarded as a true asset for us in Bonderite application know-how. While we have built up the loyalty to Henkel and other manufacturers in Central and Eastern Europe, Anmapi has taken over this task since its foundation in Portugal in 1999,” said Frank Haug, chairman of the board of the Bodo Möller Chemie Group.
