There’s nothing wrong with having beautiful, eye-catching packaging that grips a shopper from first sight. But what use is a pretty package if the contents inside are already spoiled? For this unique cross-show episode of Brands for a Better World, our resident host, Gage Mitchell turns interviewee as special guest, Adam Peek dons the host’s chair. Adam is the Senior Vice President of Sales at Meyers and also the host of the People of Packaging Podcast, and he’s here to discuss all things related to packaging and sustainability. We explore how brands can build trust and community with consumers before unpacking the role of packaging in food sustainability and preservation, how brands can get the most out of their packaging, and why it’s important for brands to simplify and clarify their on-packaging message.
Consumers today want to do the right thing – they want to buy from conscious companies; they want to buy from companies that are supporting the health of our earth. The problem isn’t that they want to do it, the problem is [that] consumer trust is at an all-time low with brands.
