Packaging World: What are some lessons you learned going through the process of installing a major packaging line at your coffee company (see packworld.com/video-29530)?

Vincent Tagliaferro:

We began with the end in mind. We knew what we needed to do in our process, and we developed a plan that would get us to the end point that we desired. We didn’t leave much to chance. We’re a smaller division of a larger company, but there isn’t a lot of room for wasted investment or inefficient use of our resources. So we really had to be methodical in our plan. If we had gone into it not knowing what we wanted the end product to look like, we would have made some wrong decisions along the way.
