Founded in 1953, by Tom Wilheit, Wilheit Packaging got its start supplying packaging for the poultry and textile industries in Georgia. Under the leadership of Philip Wilheit, Sr., the company has become a leading supplier to the Georgia, Alabama, and Carolina marketplace, and a strong presence in corrugated, poly films, and end-of-line packaging. Today the company serves food processors and industrial manufacturers alike in more than 15 states from their facilities in Gainesville and Atlanta, Georgia, Wilmington and Warsaw, North Carolina, and Arab, Alabama.
As the company has grown, Wilheit Packaging has maintained a reputation for its forward-thinking, customer-focused approach to its customers’ packaging challenges. As an early leader in sustainability, the company distinguished itself through logistics and waste diversion solutions in partnership with several waste and recycling centers.
