In this episode, we take a scenic stroll through Louise Moore Park in Palmer Township with Lisa Pammer, the powerhouse owner of Green Pond Packaging. Lisa shares the remarkable story of how she left a successful career in international finance to create Green Pond Packaging, a solo venture bringing compostable, eco-friendly food packaging to the Lehigh Valley and beyond.
Her mission began with an “Aha” moment: one afternoon at a local ice cream shop, she noticed dozens of styrofoam cups being thrown away. That simple observation was the catalyst that launched her vision of replacing everyday products with plant-based, compostable alternatives.
Join us as we dive into:
- The “Aha” Moment: How one trip to an ice cream shop sparked Lisa’s vision for sustainable packaging, inspiring her to explore compostable options to replace single-use containers.
- Product Offerings Galore: From bamboo-lined coffee cups to compostable party packs, Lisa shares the wide range of eco-friendly options she’s bringing to local restaurants, coffee shops, and even home entertainers.
- Solopreneur Life: Ever wondered what it’s like to run the whole show? Lisa explains her day-to-day, from managing her temperature-controlled warehouse to personally delivering products across town.
- The Business Plan Blueprint: Tips for building a sustainable business, from doing the initial industry research to cultivating relationships with certified, eco-conscious suppliers.
- Facing Industry Challenges: Lisa talks about entering the food service supply chain post-COVID, competing with traditional products, and balancing quality with price in a fluctuating market.
- Beyond the Lehigh Valley: With ambitions to expand into new regions and even government contracts, Lisa shares her advice on the importance of networking and her goals for Green Pond Packaging’s future.
- Educational Outreach: Lisa’s mission extends beyond just sales. She’s passionate about educating businesses on the benefits of compostable products, helping them make the switch from less eco-friendly options they’ve used for years.
