Fulwiler Honored with Lifetime Achievement Award

A panel of label industry experts for the 2010 Label Industry Global Awards has selected Terry Fulwiler, CEO of WS Packaging Group, Inc., as the 2010 winner of the prestigious R. Stanton Avery Lifetime Achievement Award. The award is sponsored by Avery Dennison.

Fulwiler joined his father’s company in 1972 when there were 25 employees and he served in a variety of management positions leading to his promotion to CEO in 1987. He is credited with the unprecedented decision in 2000 to take the company from a mid-size player in the tag and label industry to the next level, with the merger of Wisconsin Label Corporation, founded in 1966, and Superior Label Systems, Inc., founded in 1970. This was followed by nine additional acquisitions in the last nine years. Now with more than 1,775 employees at 17 locations across the U.S. and Mexico, the company produces high-quality printing, flexible packaging, and promotional products.
