About Us |
|
Our
founder and president, Norman Thomas, an M.I.T.
graduate, began his bottling and packaging career
more than 40 years ago as the Latin America
sales representative in South America for the
renown Geo. J. Meyer Mfg.
Among his main clients at the time were Coca-Cola,
Pepsi-Cola, Postobón, Pampero, Fca. de
Licores de Antioquia, and Ron Santa Teresa.
Once he possessed the necessary experience in
the complex bottling world, and with the goal
of becoming an independent businessman, Mr.
Thomas founded P.I.E. Inc. in 1982.

He increased his product lines thus offering
the complete spectrum of equipment necessary
to clean, fill, cap, label, and package bottles.
From our beginnings P.I.E. represented premier
companies in the packaging industry, including
Geo. J. Meyer, Gruppo Bertolaso, U.S. Bottlers,
Alfa Labelling, Elmar, Hamrick, ABC, and Oden
Corp. Later on, mainly as a result of the success
with our clients, we continued to increase the
number of companies we represented by adding
Bortolinkemo, Pace Packaging, Autolabe, Bardi,
BRB Globus, Euroimpianti, Sacmi, Thermaline,
Tecmi, and Della Toffola, thus allowing us to
offer more solutions to our clients. As an integral
part of our growth, we added offices in Venezuela,
Colombia, and Mexico. Each office has a sales
and technical staff to provide service and installation
capabilities for all the products we sell. From
our headquarters in Miami, Florida we coordinate
all design, sales, logistic and sales efforts.
