Mister Packaging is HubZone Compliant
Expansion-minded companies are finding out that Southwest California is about more than just affordable land and a motivated and skilled labor pool. That's what Mister Packaging discovered when it decided to settle its business in Anaheim, California years ago.
The foam and plastic thermo-formed container fabrication and manufacturing company takes advantage of the federally designated HUBZone -- or historically under-utilized business zone -- in Anaheim, which gives certified firms a leg up on defense contracts.
So far the benefits of operating in the HUBZone have allowed the privately held company to significantly increase its military business and add more workers. The company's military business has increased and is expected to increase this year as Mister Packaging promots it's HUBZone affiliation. The special designation makes Mister Packaging eligible for HUBZone-only set-aside contracts.
HUBZone certification requires that at least 35 percent of its workers live in the specially designated area.
Mister Packaging is the first packaging company in Anaheim to take advantage of the HUBZone designation, but it won't be the last. The benefits of the HUBZone certification have prompted other Anaheim firms to look into the program and vendors to consider moving to the city.
