Packaging Services Expo's successful start

The inaugural Packaging Services Expo (PSE) held in Chicago in May was attended by more than 1군 visitors. PSE addressed issues that packagers and retailers experience looking for packaging services partners.

Jun 30, 2005

More than 100 of the industry’s leaders in co-packing and packaging services exhibited at PSE. The conference and expo was sponsored by Packaging World and Contract Packaging magazines, as well as the Contract Packaging Assn., and the International Safe Transit Assn.

The next Packaging Services Expo will take place on May 16-18, 2006, at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center in Rosemont, IL. For more information, visit www.packagingservicesexpo.com.
