ProAmpac Announces CoPackConnect.com at Pack Expo International
Today at Pack Expo International, the Contract Packaging Association (CPA) and The Melville Group (TMG) announced a strategic partnership and the launch of CoPackConnect.com, a new AI-enabled technology platform. This purpose-built marketplace streamlines how brands and private labels connect with external production resources. Exclusively endorsed by the CPA and developed by TMG, the platform is free for brands, private labels, and manufacturers at its basic level.
CoPack Connect, launching today in beta, features thousands of product profiles and manufacturers, with data scaling rapidly. It incorporates AI-RFQ technology, addressing key challenges in sourcing and connecting brands with manufacturers more efficiently. According to Carl Melville, managing partner of TMG, the platform is a culmination of decades of experience and delivers solutions at a fraction of the cost of existing alternatives.
The platform also includes the Emerging Brands Resource Center, offering tools for new brands to navigate external manufacturing partnerships. Ron Puvak, CPA’s Executive Director, emphasized that with external manufacturing for food/CPG industries surpassing $100 billion in 2023, CoPack Connect is a vital solution for improving sourcing, innovation, and production efficiency.
