Dear Readers,
The past couple of weeks have certainly provided some unprecedented challenges and concerns, as our industry contends with the effects of current events. Having spoken to some of you in recent days, I’ve been amazed at how dedicated you have been in keeping employees and customers safe and well-informed, while also providing the labels and packaging needed to get essential products to consumers in this time of need.
Here at Packaging Impressions, we want help share news, experiences, and best practices with everyone in the industry, but we’ll need your help. If you’re able to share any of the following:
- General information on how your company has adapted to the current situation
- Tips or strategies for handling these challenging times
- Stories of how your company and employees are helping in your community
- Questions you have or challenges you’re facing
Please feel free to contact me at cfrancer@napco.com or publisher Brian Ludwick at bludwick@napco.com.
If there’s anything we know for sure, it’s that this industry thrives when we’re all able to share and learn from each other. While we may be physically separated, we hope we can help play a role in keeping us all connected.
Thanks and stay safe,
Cory Francer
