company: 62 years of service from Becky Hasty. At Akers, success has always been built on people, those who bring dedication, integ- rity, and heart to everything they do. Becky recently shared her sto- ry in a video testimonial, reflecting

on what it means to be part of the Akers family. Her journey not only highlights an incredible career but also the culture that has shaped our company for more than 60 years. More Than A Workplace: A Family When Becky joined Akers over six decades ago, she became part of something more than just a workplace. She became part of a family. From her first days to her 62nd year, Becky has embodied the values that connect our team and inspire the relationships we build with cus- tomers. Her words echo the culture we strive for every day: teamwork, trust, and genuine care. Living Our Core Values At Akers Packaging, our Core Values are the foundation of everything we do. Becky’s career is a powerful example of how these values come to life: • Help First – Becky’s willingness to support colleagues and customers alike reflects our team-first mentality. • Take Ownership – Through her leadership and dedica- tion, she acted like an owner, strengthening our organi- zation for the long term. • Do the Right Thing – Integrity guided her decisions, al- ways putting honesty and fairness above convenience. • Expect Excellence – Becky consistently delivered qual- ity and reliability, raising the bar for those around her. Her story is proof that these values aren’t just words on a wall, they’re a way of life at Akers. Gratitude And Inspiration As we honor Becky’s incredible 62 years, we also rec- ognize every member of our team who embodies these values day in and day out. Together, they make Akers Packaging not just a company, but a community. To our employees: thank you for the care and commit- ment you bring to your work. To our customers: thank you for trusting us to serve you with the same family spirit that Becky has lived for de- cades.
