“The goal was to design something original and bold, as we didn't want to follow the same path as other brands," said Michael Faiella, CEO and founder of La La Leaf. "We wanted to be trailblazers by bringing a totally new concept to market. WWP took the time to show options and make suggestions on the packaging that would work best with our brand and they were willing to take a chance on us being a new startup.”
“We’re very honored to receive these distinguished awards from a highly regarded industry leader like NJPEC,” said Jim Farley, EVP, global business development for WWP. “WWP appreciates the privilege to partner with NJPEC in providing continued education to students and giving them the opportunity to get involved in the industry. WWP looks forward to continue to provide our customers with evolving technologies to further cultivate ease and accessibility in beauty packaging.”
