In 2006, a group of pioneers came together to form Direct Pack, Inc. in Sun Valley, CA. No need to fast-forward; the twenty years have flown by, so we decided to quickly pause to celebrate this momentous occasion by coming together as one team and one family.

To mark Direct Pack’s 20th anniversary, our team came together for a special day on the water. We stepped away from our usual routines and spent the day on the water enjoying each other’s company, great views, and of course, good food.

More importantly, it was a chance to celebrate the people who have made DPI what it is today. These moments remind us that while our work is important, the relationships we build along the way are just as meaningful.

Twenty years has brought us many accomplishments, from the launch of BOTTLEBOX® and PaperLuxe®, to the establishment of our headquarters and Innovation Center in Azusa and multiple North American manufacturing facilities. Along the way, we’ve built longstanding relationships with our valued customer partners and continued to grow through innovation, collaboration, and a shared commitment to what’s next, but there is still so much ahead.

The packaging industry continues to change, new challenges will come our way, as new opportunities are also waiting for us. As we look toward the future of our journey, we hope to carry forward the same creativity, entrepreneurial spirit, and commitment to caring relationships, with our team members and customer partners, that have brought us this far.

To our entire DPI team: thank you!!!

Thank you for your hard work, your creativity, your dedication, and for showing up for one another every day. Thank you for everything you have contributed to the past 20 years, and for everything you will help us accomplish in the years ahead.

20 years together, and we’re just getting started!
