About This Podcast

Welcome to Pack It Like It’s Hot, the official podcast from MJS Packaging.


We’re pulling back the curtain on the packaging world to talk trends, share stories and spotlight the experts behind all things packaging. Focusing on industries like food and beverage, nutraceuticals and chemicals, this is your new go-to source for insights that matter.


Each episode features real conversations with Senior Account Executive Greg Clarke, Director of Marketing Cindy Vogel and our partners, industry pros with decades of experience and practical advice. From supply chain strategies to emerging design tips, we’ll unpack what’s happening across the packaging landscape (and have a little fun while we’re at it).

Expect practical insights, emerging trends and energetic conversations that get straight to the point.

Join us on the third Wednesday when we drop new episodes.
