Shawn: My dad started the business about 42, 43 years ago, and we are primarily a custom packaging manufacturer. We service all types of industries from health and beauty, food and beverage, medical device, pretty much the whole spectrum when it comes to packaging. And, you know, over those 40 some odd years, we've grown to be a very well-known company for the quality of the products that we produce, the different types of products that we produce, the innovations that we bring forward for our customers to utilize and get their packaging to stand out from the competition.

So, like I mentioned before, my dad started about 42 years ago. I've recently come on board. Well, I've been with the company since I was a little kid, but I've recently taken on the role of CEO over the last four years.

Michelle: Do you remember like going to the company when you were little or do you any early memories?

Shawn: Definitely got a lot of great memories. I mean, I used to come to the plant when I was a little kid and my dad used to make me a bed out of a pallet next to the printing press as he was running the printing press. It's those little memories that you that always stick in your mind, you know? But yeah, I've been in this since a little kid and printing is in my blood and I wouldn't have done anything different. I really enjoy what I do and also what we do here as a company.

Michelle: Was it your plan all along to work at the company when you were older or did you?

Shawn: Well, like most ambitious kids, we always venture out. I went to college for a little bit and I found that that really wasn't for me. So that lasted for about two years. then I came, I always worked at the company in the summers, but then I came back and I decided, I'm going to, I'm going to work alongside my dad and I'm going to help grow and build this company. And, and that's when I decided to go full-fledged in, back in ‘94, actually. Well, it was probably more around 96 when that took place because I graduated in ‘94.
