In this episode of the Econo-Pak Contract Food Packaging podcast, we sit down with Brooke Willis, our dedicated Inventory Manager. With six years of experience, Brooke shares her journey from starting in the shipping and receiving department to becoming the go-to resource for managing inventory and coordinating projects across multiple departments.

Brooke provides valuable insights into how she uses spreadsheets, Outlook calendars, and other tools to ensure seamless communication and efficiency within our operations. She also discusses the critical role of managing raw materials, collaborating with various teams, and maintaining the accuracy of our systems to support production schedules.

Whether you're interested in inventory management, project coordination, or just want to hear from a seasoned professional, this conversation is packed with practical advice and real-world examples that you won't want to miss.
