Ideon Packaging Acquired By GLBC

Great Little Box Company (GLBC) and Ideon Packaging today announce the coming together of two aligned organizations in one of the most significant acquisitions the industry has seen in recent years.  The acquisition of Ideon by GLBC – an award-winning manufacturer and distributor of packaging solutions since 1982 – brings together two independent and locally owned businesses with a shared focus on quality, innovation, people and culture.   Ideon, a fast-growing leader in custom packaging, had grown to excel and differentiate in a competitive landscape.   As both organizations enter the second generation of leadership, talks of uniting began in late 2019.

Together, GLBC and Ideon will offer a breadth of products, service and customer excellence unlike anything in the North American market.  Working alongside each other both groups will unite leadership teams with a focus on furthering innovation, growth and care for their employees and customers.

What this means for customers is they can expect the same exceptional quality, service and innovation that has come to distinguish each organization – but with a deeper product and service offering.  For employees of the organizations, a goal of 100 percent employee retention has been set.   It is a foundational part of the union established to ensure that synergies are realized through combining strengths and working together to compete in new areas previously unavailable.
