Infortar Acquires Tallinn Book Printers: A Strategic Move in Estonian Printing Industry

Infortar, an Estonian investment company, has acquired Tallinn Book Printers, a prominent printing company specializing in books. The transaction is reflective of a broader trend of consolidation within the manufacturing and export industries, where achieving efficiencies and enhancing market positions are paramount. Tallinn Book Printers, producing around 5 million printed materials each year and employing 104 staff, operates out of an expansive production and warehouse facility. Ellex, a law firm, facilitated the legal aspects of the acquisition, with a team consisting of Partners Martin Kaerdi and Martin Maesalu as well as Senior Associates Karin Tartu and Liisbeth Eero. The lack of response from Ellex adds a layer of mystery to the acquisition.
