Working for manufacturers of cartons, he’d frequently sit in meetings where experts from various fields would come together and come up with packaging solutions for supermarkets. There was a carton expert, a plastic expert, a ribbon expert, and others sitting around a table. He had a lightbulb moment. He figured there had to be a better way to get the customer what they wanted. Ahead of his time, he started one of the first one-stop shop packaging companies.In 2016, I took over the helm of the company from my dad and took it to the next level. As the industry changed, our responses had to flex, too. We made a lot of mistakes and learned many lessons from what was wrong in the packaging industry. We created our own framework and built an even better, faster, more reliable sustainable packaging machine.Fast-forward to today, Packaging Answers has a combined 150 years of experience on our Senior Team. We’ve delivered thousands of projects for drinks and spirits, confectionery and ecommerce companies.36 tons of CO2e saved removing plastic from a bottle and glass gift pack£25,000 saved on a £250,000 easter egg project whilst also making it plastic free.Mailway Packaging Solutions Group aquired Packaging Answers LTD in March 2024, and I joined Mailway as Commercial Director.
