Takeaways From TUG2019

The United Group 2019 Conference was held at the Gaylord National Resort and Convention Center in National Harbor/Washington, D.C., Wednesday, April 10 through Saturday, April 13.

This was Versa Pak’s third year attending the conference, which brings multiple opportunities for networking in the industry.

“We joined The United Group to expand our footprint in our distributor market,” Knapke said, Another reason they attend the conference each year is networking – they get to talk directly to their customers during this event.

“The first year, it was more of a meet-and-greet to get to know the distributors; the second year, we got our feet wet and started forming relationships, and then those relationships have turned into business connections,” he said.
