Retail Trends To Shift In 2020
2019: A Last Look Back
In this issue, the first of the new year, we complete our look back at some of the most important news items from 2019. Finishing equipment manufacturer AB Graphic International joined forces with Kocher+Beck , producer of cutting and printing tools, to ac- quire the Spanish labeling, convert- ing and packaging equipment manu- facturer Enprom Packaging . Multi-Color Corporation ’s acqui- sition by an affiliate of Platinum Equi- ty, a private equity firm, was complet- ed. Multi-Color Corporation merged with a subsidiary of WS Packaging , another label supplier within Plati- num Equity’s portfolio of companies. Flexible packaging provider, Flex Pack SAS , installed Flexo Wash tech- nology at its plant in Bogota to help improve the quality of work being pro- duced on its two flexo printing presses. Following a visit to Labelexpo in Chica- go,Illinois,and a meeting with the Flexo Wash team, the decision was made to invest in a PW82WR Plate Washer and an FW992XLAniloxWasher.

W hile a new year may bring more than a handful of un- knowns, consumers are already planning how they’ll shop in 2020.And one thing is for certain: physical interactions with products still play a major role in purchasing decisions.The over- whelming majority (82 percent) of consumers say that seeing, holding or demoing a product in-person makes them more in- clined to actually purchase at the counter.

AICC Hosts Seminar To Build Customer Relationships AICC, The Independent Packaging Association, has opened registration on its latest sales seminar, Build- ing Long Term Customer Relationships, to be offered March 3-4, in College Park, Georgia. Taught by Keith Thomas, Director of Business De- velopment, Michigan City Paper Box Co., this seminar will help attendees learn specific and tangible ways to build trust, dependability and integrity throughout the entire sales process.They will also uncover hidden areas where these three character traits are most of- ten compromised and techniques to accelerate trust to help shorten sales cycles. The competitiveness of today’s print and packaging landscape often has us focusing on the short-term ben- efit – i.e., the close of a deal.While this is what all sales professionals want, there are different ways to go about getting there.With a longer-term perspective in mind, attendees will learn to close current deals while simul- taneously building a relationship with a client or pros- pect that will position them to order repeatedly after the successful execution of the first order. More infor- mation about the seminar and hotel reservation infor- mation can be found at www.aiccbox.org/calendar .
