On 9 April, Cameron Dellar will speak to PCA members at the Packaging Council of Australia offices in Melbourne.

Dellar is ANZ Packaging Innovation Manager at H.J. Heinz Co. Australia Ltd. Heinz Australia is a $1 billion company with four manufacturing facilities and around 1100 staff. It has been around since the 1880s and has come a long way since its first Australian product, bottled horseradish, was packaged in Richmond, Victoria. Four generations of Australians currently think that Beanz means Heinz.

As you might have guessed already, Dellar knows a bit about packaging. He will share what he knows about:

  • The packaging scenario at Heinz

  • The role of suppliers – What does Heinz expect and what should the industry know?

  • Innovation – who drives it and how important is it?

  • Current trends both locally and globally

  • What lies ahead

How do you get to hear what he knows. If you're a PCA member, you register here.

And it's free.

If you're not a PCA member, perhaps it's time you considered joining?
