What is your name and position? How long have you been in this role? 

Nancy Colbert MacDougall, CEO, Colbert Packaging. I assumed the position of CEO in 2018, after serving as Board Chairman throughout the prior decade. 

How did you get into the packaging/processing industry and what attracted you to it? 

After earning my bachelor’s degree from St. Lawrence University in 1975, I joined Colbert Packaging, learning the business from the ground up. Working as an estimator for the first six years enabled me to understand the intricacies, variables, and complexities involved in packaging production. I then went on to serve as the assistant to the Chairman, my father, Charles (Bud) Colbert. This afforded me a valuable opportunity to learn all aspects of the business of running a packaging converting company. For 20 years, alongside my dad, I absorbed all the knowledge and experience I could - learning from the best - a true pioneer in the business.
