Mike Waite
mediate Past Chairman for Shop!. Award criteria includes 25 years of industry experience, significant contributions to the industry and community, and adhering to ethical business practices throughout their career. Waite is one of three 2021 Shop! Hall of Fame induct- ees. “He was instrumental in shaping MPC’s market posi- tion, elevating our brand, and securing some of the world’s largest consumer packaged goods companies as top cus- tomers,” said Mike Riegsecker, MPC’s current President. During his 37-year tenure at the industry’s largest re- tail-focused packaging and merchandising supply chain solutions provider, Waite led MPC through a period of sig- nificant growth and success. He transitioned the compa- ny from a regional corrugated packaging business to the nation’s largest independent retail-focused merchandising and packaging fulfillment and services company. “Mike strongly believed in the efforts of industry re- sources and partners, and knew that supporting and en- gaging these resources would not only make Menasha better, but would also make the industry better if we all worked together,” Riegsecker said. Waite’s theory on leading and collaborating with the broader industry led Menasha to its longstanding sup- port of and participation in national tradeshows, thought leadership events and panels. He was instrumental in the development of Menasha’s Retail Platform, the Rii Advan- tage, which propelled MPC’s merchandising display busi- ness and by developing collaborative relationships with channel-leading retailers. “He believed in collaboration and transparency with our customers and developing true partnerships and rela- tionships where everyone wins, and everyone gets better along the way,” said Jeff Krepline, Menasha’s Vice Presi- dent of Business Development and Sales Strategy. Menasha Packaging is the industry’s largest indepen- dent retail-focused packaging and merchandising supply chain solutions provider.
