SCA Containerboard has been selected as a finalist for the PPI Awards!

06/08/2009

Our Supplier of Choice campaign has been shortlisted for the “Promotional/Sales/Marketing Campaign of the Year” prize in the 2009 Pulp & Paper International (PPI) Awards, one of the paper and pulp industry’s most prestigious awards. The PPI Awards are the only global awards dedicated to recognizing these achievements in the sector.

Mark Rushton, Editor of PPI, said: “We’ve been thrilled with the high quality and number of entries for the first ever PPI Awards. The finalists should be justly proud of their achievements. Not only does the PPI Awards event allow us to honour the best in business but it will also offer fantastic networking opportunities for those who attend.”

Stefano Rossi, Marketing & Sales Director SCA Containerboard said: “A successful marketing campaign is based on three essential prerequisites: the absolute trust in the quality of your products & services, the believe in the cohesion of the entire organisation in keeping up with the consistency of the commitments and, last but not least, the strong enthusiasm for your job and business. Without those absolute musts, it would be an empty advertising action rather than a process adding value to the partnership with your customers. These new awards are regarded as a universal benchmark of quality within the paper and pulp industry. Being shortlisted is a tremendous achievement and we feel very honoured.”

Industry renowned names including Rod Young, Chairman of RISI; Kari Vainio, former Executive Vice President, Communications at Stora Enso; Jim Keller, President of the International Corrugated Case Association; and Duncan Pollard, Director, Conservation Practice & Policy, WWF International judged this year’s entries.

This year’s winners will be announced at a spectacular ceremony at the Hilton Munich Park, Germany on October 28.
