Since the first month of the year is not quite over yet, we think it is still appropriate to wish our loyal readers a Happy New Year and all of our best wishes for the year ahead. With the holidays over and the dreary deep freeze upon us, we thought we’d take a fond look back on all of the exciting events of 2012…
2012 was a notable year for new product introductions…
- In March, we introduced our brand new GreenBox SliceBox in Whole Food Markets’ North Atlantic Region. The beauty of this packaging is threefold: (i) It is made from 100% recycled material instead of a blend of virgin and recycled fibers; (ii) it is uncoated, making it 100% recyclable and compostable; and (iii) it stores flat, saving on storage space for our restaurant customers and eliminating the scrap waste that is created by the popping and tearing of pre-glued corners.
- In September, we introduced our brand new GreenBox Sandwich Sleeves in Whole Food Markets’ Florida Region. Whole Foods’ loves this packaging for a few reasons: (i) its made from 100% recycled material; (ii) its uncoated, making it 100% recyclable and compostable; and (iii) it serves as a convenient plate for shoppers eating on-the-go, even while they shop!
2012 was also an outstanding year for giving back!...
- In September, GreenBox was a proud sponsor of the 15
th hole at Connecticut distributor Russell Hall’s annual golf tournament, with proceeds from the event donated to the
Make-A-Wish Foundation.
And so, with 2013 now in full swing, we look forward to another exciting year of introducing many more cutting edge, eco-friendly new products and getting involved in causes that mean something to our company, our community and our customers! We’ll be keeping you posted!
