PMCF Investment Banking Managing Director John Hart and Vice Presidents Ryan Muneio and Soren Rossi will attend the upcoming MAPP Benchmarking & Best Practices Conference 2026. The conference brings together plastics processors, manufacturing executives, operational leaders, and industry professionals to share proven strategies, financial insights, leadership ideas, and best practices.
As part of the event, John Hart and Soren Rossi will present “Built for the Transition: How to Build, Protect, and Realize the Long-Term Value of Your Plastics Company.” The session will draw on over two decades of PMCF plastics and packaging deal experience to examine how value is created, how buyers assess it, and how strategic planning and market timing influence outcomes. Using PMCF’s proprietary Plastics M&A database, the session will cover current Plastics M&A trends, a review of notable transactions, and a breakdown of activity by subsector, and will connect those trends to the value drivers that buyers reward – including end-market diversification, margin quality, capital discipline, management depth, and clean financials. Attendees will leave with a practical checklist of key value drivers in a transaction and a roadmap for when to take action.
