Power Packaging, a DHL company and part of Deutsche Post DHL Group, marks its fiftieth anniversary. Since 1968, the contract manufacturer has evolved from a small, privately-owned company to North America's leading contract manufacturer for food and beverage consumer packaged goods (CPG).
Through industry changes, continuous growth and its acquisition by DHL, Power Packaging has maintained its reputation as a company with an entrepreneurial spirit and passion for supporting its customers. Now, as a DHL company and part of Deutsche Post DHL Group, Power Packaging has the financial strength and supply chain sophistication to offer its customers a full breadth of solutions, including real estate, e-commerce and logistics.
"Longevity is earned," said Gordon Gruszka, President, Power Packaging. "We are a trusted partner to leading food brands. We celebrate 50 years as a result of our rigorous commitment to food safety, packaging innovation and quality. The key to our longevity is our ability to evolve. Whether the customer challenge is line extensions, shelf-ready solutions or facility management, Power Packaging continues to meet the evolving trends of this highly competitive business."

"We commercialize solutions around our CPG customers' needs with an emphasis on finding creative ways to overcome challenges."
