Greater BYPY Awards announce headline sponsors

The Future Faces division of the GBCC have announced Schumacher Packaging UK and Aston University as headline sponsors for the Greater BYPY Awards and Dinner, taking place in September 2023.

Schumacher Packaging is one of the largest family-run manufacturers of corrugated and solid board packaging, with a base in Germany. In 2020 the retail giant merged with Jaffabox, Birmingham-based manufacturer of corrugated board packaging solutions, allowing them to stake a claim in the UK packaging market as Schumacher Packaging UK.

Michael Owens, managing director at Schumacher Packaging UK, said: “Schumacher Packaging Birmingham is delighted to be a headline sponsor for the Greater Birmingham Young Professionals Awards 2023 as they recognise the innovators and decision-makers who will shape industry for the coming generations. ”

Aston University is a longstanding Patron of the GBCC and Future Faces divisions, and have sponsored many events and awards over the years.

There are still opportunities available for sponsorship of the awards. For more information on sponsorship, click here.
