Inteplast Group Wins Top Awards at UniPro Foodservice Conference

Inteplast Group’s Foodservice Business Unit won the Exclusive Brands and Elite Supplier awards at this year’s UniPro Foodservice Spring Conference in Denver. The company was hailed for its service and product quality in three disposable categories: can liners, gloves, and PVC wrap under the Companions® brand. Approximately 1,400 industry professionals attended the event on March 10-12. Here’s a video of our winning Foodservice team at the UniPro conference.

Matt O’Doherty, general manager and senior director of Inteplast’s Foodservice Business Unit, described the wins as “phenomenal.”

“This is an incredible achievement for the Inteplast team. Collectively, UniPro, and their 450+ member distributors purchase $168 billion annually from over 500 approved supplier partners. That Inteplast, as a non-foods supplier, was selected as the Overall Supplier of the Year is unprecedented. We consider this an organizational award as virtually all areas of the IBS Division and Pitt Plastics team have contributed to our success.”

Pitt Plastics is an Inteplast Group company within its Integrated Bagging Systems (IBS) Division. The Foodservice business unit comprises products from IBS and Pitt Plastics.
