PMMI Board Vote of Confidence for PACK EXPO Las Vegas and Healthcare Packaging EXPO

PMMI Board Unanimously Moves Forward with PACK EXPO Las Vegas and Healthcare Packaging EXPO

PACK EXPO Las Vegas and Healthcare Packaging EXPO. Packaging. Processing. One Powerful Show.
PACK EXPO Las Vegas and Healthcare Packaging EXPO is the only comprehensive packaging and processing show in the world in 2021.

The Board of Directors of PMMI, The Association for Packaging and Processing Technologies, issued a vote of confidence to convene as an industry at PACK EXPO Las Vegas and Healthcare Packaging EXPO (Sept. 27-29, Las Vegas Convention Center) and instructed PMMI staff to move forward with all preparation for a safe and productive show.

β€œAlthough we expected the Board to support moving forward with the show, we were particularly encouraged by what they are hearing from their customers,” said Jim Pittas, president and CEO, PMMI. β€œThe message was clear: The industry is extremely strong, and with the need for in-person events so great, PACK EXPO remains perfectly positioned to serve the industry.” 

The Board met just before show producer PMMI’s 2021 Executive Leadership Conference (ELC), spending significant time during a four-hour Board meeting discussing the fall show. The discussion reinforced the packaging and processing industry’s desire to come together in person. As exhibitors at PACK EXPO and Healthcare Packaging EXPO themselves, they recognized that while things could change, current trends are mostly positive and point to a safe and productive industry event. 

β€œThe Board discussion, along with every ELC business session, reinforced the significant need for an event where we can meet with customers, discuss their challenges and present them with real solutions to their needs,” said Emmanuel Cerf, vice president of sales, Polypack, Inc., and PMMI Chairman. β€œOur customers are eager to attend, and PMMI leadership is instructing staff to move full steam ahead with planning for a return to a safe and productive in-person trade show.”
