ABC Packaging Direct ranks #1 on PCI’s list of Top Five Growth Companies for Q3 2007

Cleveland, OH – November 19, 2007 – ABC Packaging Direct is proud to announce record sales growth (83%) between the second and third quarter of 2007. Because of this record achievement, ABC has been ranked #1 on PCI’s list of “Top Five Growth Companies” for Q3 2007.

The Private Company Index (PCI) is a subset of companies which align across multiple regions and business sectors to offer the investment community a current financial measurement tool for private businesses. PCI is generally recognized in the business community as the authoritative source on company growth and private sector performance.

Each quarter, PCI analysts review sales data of member companies and identify the five firms with the greatest quarter-on-quarter growth. ABC Packaging Direct is proud to be the company with the most recognizable growth between the second and third quarters of fiscal year 2007, with an astonishing 83% growth rate.

David Marinac, president and CEO of ABC Packaging Direct, believes this phenomenal growth is a direct result of the company’s unique operating philosophy. “Our clients look to us because we customize our products to meet their specific, and often complex, needs,” says Marinac. “We’ve also been able to harness the power of the internet, which means we can service our customers with real-time speed.”

ABC Packaging Direct offers a variety of customized and stock packaging products, from specialty high and low temperature films, returnable packaging, and molded foams to heavy gauge thermoforming, retail clamshells and stand up pouches. Their client base includes such giants as International Truck and Engine, Corning Glass, Honeywell, General Electric, Rockwell and more.

The success of ABC Packaging Direct is directly related to its ability to utilize technology to achieve its goals. Prior to ABC’s arrival on the market, the packaging industry had been slow to adapt new methodologies and technologies for the design and delivery of packaging solutions. ABC leads the technology revolution in the packaging market, resulting in a more efficient use of customer, supplier, and distributor resources, leading to faster turnarounds and lower costs.

ABC Packaging Direct’s main mission is to lead the design and delivery of packaging solutions, and achieve this through five basic principles: incorporate web technology into sales, design, purchasing and customer relationships; use advanced communication techniques to interact with customers during the design and delivery process; offer immediate response to customer inquiries; follow through to completion on all orders in a timely manner; and stand behind every product and service they provide.

ABC Packaging Direct is a Cleveland, Ohio-based provider of packaging solutions for manufacturers, with a product offering ranging from specialty high and low temperature films, returnable packaging, and molded foams, to heavy gauge thermoforming, retail clamshells, and stand up pouches.
