ANCHOR BAY PACKAGING CORPORATION OVERVIEW
Our tradition of excellent packaging design and manufacturing dates back to 1979, when the company was founded by Mark Pierno. Although the company has grown considerably over the years, we have remained true to the basic principles that Mark envisioned when he started Anchor Bay Packaging: Superior engineering and a strong commitment to excellent customer service. We firmly believe that these principles have been the keys to our success over the years.
Prior to founding Anchor Bay Packaging, Mark was a salesperson for Stone Container Corporation. Recognizing the need for just-in-time multi-material packaging, Mark decided to start his own company. In 1981, he partnered with Phil Taravella, who was the Chief Container Engineer for Stone Container. Phil shared the vision of Mark, a packaging / brokerage company that specializes in automotive interior packaging and an effort to excel.
Between 1990 and 1997, Anchor Bay Packaging grew dramatically in sales and profits. It was during this period that the company developed its strategy as the market leader for automotive inner packaging. In 1997 they moved to their current location at 23 Mile Road.
With the death of Mark Pierno in 2007, control of the company passed to his wife Victoria and it became a “Certified Woman Owned Business.”
Anchor Bay Packaging specializes in the manufacture and sale of corrugated packaging products primarily for the automotive industry throughout the world market. The heart of the company's strategy is our market leadership in product engineering, research and design. Anchor Bay Packaging engineers are highly experienced and work with state-of-the-art equipment to solve demanding packaging problems for our customers. We use corrugated, wood, chipboard, plastic, sponge, or a combination of these materials to meet customer needs. These fundamental business strategies have resulted in substantial growth and profitability for 35 years. In short, this approach leaves Anchor Bay Packaging in a unique position as an industry leader.
