New Haven, Connecticut – November 5, 2007 – Woodbridge, LLC., a marketing-driven middle-market mergers and acquisitions firm, is pleased to announce the sale of its client, Automated Packaging, Inc. to Cloud Packaging Solutions LLC, a portfolio company of private equity firm Cameron Holdings Corp.

Automated Packaging, Inc., a Winder, Georgia-based contract manufacturer and packager of high-speed liquid filling applications, is a turnkey, one-stop resource for manufacturers, retailers and distributors. In addition, the company’s staff chemists and R&D facilities help customers formulate new products.

Woodbridge brought Automated Packaging to market in early June of this year and distributed 128 books to interested buyers. Woodbridge’s multi-channel marketing campaign for Automated Packaging reached over 3,500 prospective financial and strategic buyers.

In announcing the transaction, Kevin Fritzmeyer, president of Cloud commented, “We are extremely pleased to be able to add Automated Packaging to our organization. We see an excellent opportunity for growth based on the market space which Automated Packaging serves and Cloud’s history of investment and planned growth.”
