FAYETTEVILLE, AR -- 01/02/08 --
CaseStack will be celebrating the launch
of their new regional headquarters on Wednesday, January 16, 2008. The
grand opening event, hosted by the Arkansas World Trade Center in Rogers,
AR features an engaging group of speakers that will provide insight to the
development of the Green Valley of Northwest Arkansas and the
sustainability business.
CaseStack and Wal-Mart will discuss how freight consolidation can reduce
shipping costs for CPG companies. State, local and University of Arkansas
officials will join the welcome. In addition, the National Biodiesel Board
will be present to discuss the advantages of alternative fuels. The office
of Congressman John Boozman and Mayor Bob McCaslin of the Wal-Mart
headquarters' city of Bentonville are among those expected to attend.
The Arkansas World Trade Center is one of 300 WTC's located in over 90
countries worldwide. Its vision is to bring together business and
government agencies involved in foreign trade to further the economic
outlook for the state as a whole and encourage stability, peace, and world
trade development on a global level. The center also serves Eastern
Oklahoma and Southwest Missouri, so CaseStack is excited to be a part of
this centrally located, globally focused community.
CaseStack's Fayetteville office acts not only as the company's regional
headquarters, but also as the center for sustainability. The office plans
to expand and open a Research and Development Center by mid 2008.
The luncheon will be catered by James at the Mill and will showcase Ozark
Plateau cuisine. Press check-in starts at 10:45am and the event begins at
11:30am.
