CardPak Wins Local Awards
Recognized for Commitment to Workforce and Community
Solon, Ohio – (Press Release) – CardPak, Inc., a supplier of innovative packaging products to consumer marketing companies, invests a great deal in its workforce, and it’s not all about capital improvement. The company is consistently recognized for its commitment to being a great place to work and a strong member of the local business community.
“Our business philosophy at its core creates a culture that develops top performers and recognizes community needs. CardPak believes that each employee contributes directly to our business growth and success, and our responsibilities in the community.” said Tony Petrelli, president. “By providing career opportunities, rewarding performance and creating a pleasant working environment, we encourage people to excel for the company, the industry and the city in which we work. The future of CardPak has people at its core.”
The company also is committed to a program of environmental responsibility, along with a strategic commitment to sustainable practices and products. These were key components of CardPak’s business model for many years prior to the rise of today’s “Green” movement. CardPak felt it critical to develop an organization that would establish policies and objectives that would protect the environment, benefit its employees’ health and safety, and provide a more efficient way of manufacturing.
As a result of all these initiatives, CardPak recently was named to the “NorthCoast 99” Best Places to Work in Northeast Ohio for the 10th straight year, and was also named 2009 Business of the Year by the Solon, Ohio, Chamber of Commerce.
NorthCoast 99 is a recognition program sponsored by the Employers Resource Council (ERC) that honors 99 great workplaces annually. Since 1999, the program has recognized over 400 organizations for their ability to maintain great workplaces that support the attraction, retention, and motivation of top performers.
“We are honored to receive this prestigious award in our home market, and we thank the ERC for recognizing our efforts to be one of the top workplaces in Northeast Ohio,” said Petrelli. “This award validates everything we strive for everyday.”
CardPak also was named 2009 Business of the Year by the Solon Chamber of Commerce, which cited the company for ably handling many challenges, including responding to natural disasters and developing manufacturing practices and products that address environmental concerns and objectives.
“We couldn’t have done any of this without the dedication and commitment of our valued employees,” Petrelli added. “They are at the heart of everything we do each day.”
