History
Conpac Group, Inc. was formed in 1984 by two entrepreneurs wanting to merge their companies together. The name stems from the products for which the company was founded to provide: CONtainers and PACkaging. President and sole stock holder today, Don Esbjornson, was a supplier, and was asked to join the company as an employee. Negotiations flowered into a partnership, and Conpac Group, Inc. was chosen as the new corporate identity. In 1996, Don became the sole owner. Conpac Group launched our first fully-independent site in October 2010. In January of 2016, Conpac Group moved to its current headquarters at 554 Territorial Drive, Bolingbrook, IL. In February of 2018, the company added over 11,000 square feet of additional warehouse space, bringing the total square footage to 31,000 sq feet. Over breakfast with friend and mentor David MacNeil (owner of WeatherTech) in a LasVegas coffee shop (during SEMA 2019), the idea to rebrand the NEW website as PackagingHero.com was suggested.
