Recently retired from Sealed Air, Mr. Thomas has invested over 35 years in the packaging industry, representing Cryovac, Shanklin & Sealed Air and proudly the Contract Packaging Association. A career devoted to his customers, Territory Sales, Business Development, Distribution Management, National Accounts, Scott also served on Sealed Air’s Films Management Team.

During the National Account years, Mr. Thomas directed the start-up of several multi-location co-pack programs that supported the demands of the CPG marketplace.  So in 1991, Sealed Air was focused on “speed to market” solutions, long before it was an industry “buzz-word.” During this period the vision for Co-Packer Connection® was formed.

In 2004, Scott finalized the creation of Co-Packer Connection®, which is a connection service between the CPG and Contract Packaging markets.  This program has been recognized as a key contributor to the growth of the CPA.
