Benson Group at easyFairs Packaging London

July 2010

Benson Group, one of the UK's leading privately owned carton printers, with headquarters in Bardon, Leicestershire, is a regular exhibitor at easyFairs Packaging Innovation shows in Birmingham, and the company is anticipating further good visitor numbers to be delivered at the forthcoming easyFairs Packaging London event, taking place on October 7th and 8th 2010 at the Business Design Centre, Islington.

Paul Tye, Marketing Manager, Benson Group, commenting after another successful easyFairs show in Birmingham earlier this year, said: "The Packaging Innovation show from easyFairs simply continues to deliver the right kind of visitor to our stand, and in very healthy numbers. What more can you ask of a show? Having had a stand at the Birmingham event for several years, I had no hesitation in booking for the new Packaging Innovation London exhibition. I am convinced that it will deliver more of the same."

The company will use the event to further promote its award winning carton production capabilities for the food and pharmaceutical sectors.
