Peachtree Packaging & Display Named a “Supply Chain Pioneer of the Year” by Partnership Gwinnett


Lawrenceville, GA (April 12, 2021) – Peachtree Packaging & Display was recently honored in Partnership Gwinnett and Gwinnett Technical College’s 2021 Movers & Makers Manufacturing & Supply Chain Awards. Peachtree was named Gwinnett County’s “Supply Chain Pioneer of the Year” in the category of large-size manufacturer.


The Movers & Makers Awards recognizes outstanding small, medium, and large manufacturers in Gwinnett, as well as innovators in supply chain management.

This is the third year Peachtree Packaging has been recognized by Partnership Gwinnett. The company was named the Manufacturer of the Year in 2020 and Most Valuable Provider in 2019. Andy Auchmuty, vice president of Peachtree Packaging, accepted the award.


“It was a very tough year for everyone and we could not be prouder of our employees and leadership for how they pulled together and continued to deliver the products our customers needed to keep the economy moving,” said Auchmuty. “From hand sanitizing displays and store dividers, to the surge in e-commerce packaging, our teams rose to the occasion with innovative solutions.”


Gwinnett Board of Commissioners Chairwoman Nicole Love Hendrickson attended the event and praised the business community for their tenacity during the events of 2020.


“I am so proud of the Movers & Makers winners and nominees at this year’s award ceremony, especially given the challenges of the past year,” said Hendrickson. “Manufacturing and supply chain play a pivotal role in Gwinnett County’s strong and vital economy, so it’s great to see a celebration of our community partners’ successes.”
