Brands Talking Sustainability

Print buyers from REI and Starbucks will tell print suppliers where and why sustainability figures into print buying decisions during the Brands Talking Sustainability luncheon today from 12 noon to 2 pm, and features speakers Suzanna Eversole, Manager, Print Production, REI and Stephen White, Print Production Manager, Starbucks Coffee Company.

“In a retail setting, marketing materials very often can’t be reused or recycled. That matters to a growing number of brands like REI and Starbucks. They’re looking for print providers who understand the importance of the sustainable journey,” says Marci Kinter, Vice President, Government & Business Affairs, Specialty Graphic Imaging Association (SGIA) (Booth 2245). “This luncheon will explore how print suppliers can help retailers meet their sustainability objectives.”

Tickets for Brands Talking Sustainability is not included in the EXPO + Education pass; those interested in attending can purchase tickets for $30.
