Eco-Friendly Food Service Retailer PacknWood to Exhibit at IBIE
Posted by Melanie Green on Aug 27th 2019
PacknWood is pleased to participate in this year’s International Baking Industry Exposition at the Las Vegas Convention Center.
PacknWood is one of the 1,000+ vendors to be featured in the IBIE Expo Hall in Booth #745. Anyone interested in learning more about PacknWood’s product catalog of eco-friendly single use bakery products, including bakeware, macaron boxes, bakery bags, and more can stop by the booth to see some of the products in person and to talk to a team member.
According to Adam Merran, Chief Executive Officer at PacknWood USA, “There’s been a huge shift in what customers want from food service retailers. It isn’t enough to sell delicious baked goods or treats. Customers are concerned about the environment and how much waste they create. Selling bakery products in eco-friendly single use containers that look great is possible for businesses of all sizes. Our products make it easy to make the switch.”
At IBIE, PacknWood will feature two new items created based on demand: Pillow Packs with Windows and Bakeable Black Kray Boxes with Lids. Pillow Packs with Windows make pressed sandwiches, cookies, and small bread loaves look even more appetizing, with large windows on the recyclable cardboard container. It even works for hot food and is available in a variety of sizes.
Bakeable Black Kray Boxes are ideal for packaging cakes, hot meals, cobblers, and more. The base of the paper box can be baked up to 440 degrees Fahrenheit. The windowed lid gives customers an idea of what tasty treat they’re buying. The eco-friendly single use product is also convenient, as bakers won’t need a separate container to bake and to package the finished product.
IBIE is the world’s largest grain-based food industry event in the United States. It is also known as the Baking Expo. It provides an opportunity for those in wholesale baking, retail baking, artisan baking, tortilla production, snack foods, pizza making, and more to network, learn, and grow with other companies and suppliers. This includes many scheduled demonstrations, networking events, and conference sessions. The Expo Hall is open to attendees over the course of the event.
The event takes place from Sunday, September 8th to Wednesday, September 11th, with some educational programming taking place on Saturday, September 7th. Tickets are still available for both members and non-members, including on the day of the event.
