Winston Packaging Celebrates 100 Anniversary

Current president and CEO James Gordon learned the business from the ground up, earned a business degree from NC State University, and, after five years as the manufacturing manager, succeeded his father as company president in 1984. Gordon has steered the company through the Internet/digital age by staying at the forefront of technology and recognizing emerging trends in the market. He turned the company into a full-fledged packaging operation during the mid 1990s, with the operating unit name change to Winston Packaging in 1999.
