I had the privilege recently to meet with Chamber member, New Tech Packaging’s J.C. Heotis Jr., president, and Mike Mathias, vice president of business development, to find out more about their business. I knew beforehand that they developed packaging for various household names, some you would recognize. I was surprised to learn that they save their customers money by developing more efficient methods of packaging, and because of this, they have become more profitable. Also, New Tech values employees with problem solving and creative skills over a sales background. The way they see it, a good business is having the best customer service.
