Pearson sincerely thanks Leo Robertson for his contributions to the company as he begins a new chapter of life: retirement.

Leo's tenure with Pearson spans an impressive 30+ years. Most recently, he served as Director of Applications Engineering, but he has held a multitude of roles within the organization over the years. Beginning as a Design Engineer in 1990, he has held engineering, sales, product management, operations, and executive positions, and has been an excellent mentor and resource to most Pearson team members.

Wishing you all the best - and biggest catches - in the years ahead, Leo.

Strong, Stackable Display Cases Meeting Box Store Requirements
_________________________________

Do you supply to big box retailers and club stores like Costco, Sam’s Club, and Walmart?

Are your display cases strong enough to protect your products?

Can they stack without crushing?
_________________________________

Bliss boxes may be the answer, and Pearson can automate the forming process!

Our bliss machines form many of the most common case and tray styles used today, including those with reinforced corners and multi-side cutouts.

3-piece box and trays are sturdy by design. Plus, Pearson machines use an active forming section to ensure boxes are square and securely-sealed.

Meet the product and pallet integrity standards set by the retailers you supply to on every delivery.
