PMMI, The Association for Packaging and Processing Technologies, is pleased to announce the promotion of Andrew Dougherty to vice president of Member Services. Dougherty, who joined the staff in 2012, spearheads member engagement and recruitment efforts.
“Andrew plays an important role in not only building awareness among member companies about our offerings, but also in showing them how these programs can benefit their business,” says Charles D. Yuska, president and CEO of PMMI.
PMMI provides great value to its more than 700 members, and according to Dougherty, the face-to-face opportunities may be the most beneficial.
“The intelligence sharing and networking that take place at PMMI meetings are powerful,” Dougherty says. “Time and time again members tell me that PMMI gives them privileged access to people, places, and information they can’t get anywhere else. In fact, by engaging in the association and attending meetings, PMMI helps our members gain a competitive advantage.”
One such vital networking event is the upcoming PMMI Annual Meeting, Nov. 9–11, in St. Petersburg, Florida, where members learn new business solutions and discuss relevant topics with like-minded professionals, in addition to touring the Polypack Inc. plant in nearby Pinellas Park.
