Todd Brown

President

Todd is a 25+ year packaging and adhesives industry veteran. He founded Brown by repairing gluing equipment in his garage in 2000; his office was in the basement. Clients were noticeably struggling with gluing equipment and adhesive on a regular basis, and the large manufacturers weren’t paying much attention. Brown filled a critical niche and has been growing ever since. Prior to launching Brown, Todd was Director, Operations Team for Elegant Packaging, a custom rigid box and sewn products manufacturer. Todd is a member of PMMI.
