“Creativity Works Here”

SOUTH COAST PAPER SOLUTION FOR GEORGIA PACIFIC DESERVES AN A+

Problem: Georgia-Pacific Corporation (GP) manufactured and sold a 150 ream count paper product on the shelves of Wal-Mart - one of the nations leading superstores. Through this relationship with Wal-Mart, Georgia-Pacific was uniquely and strategically positioned to market products and services to hundreds of thousands of customers. However, in an effort to promote a special “Back to School” campaign, Georgia - Pacific found it difficult to launch an in-store promotion in a cost effective way.

Through our latest automated technology and equipment, South Coast Paper was able to properly insert Georgia-Pacific’s promotional piece inside the ream.
