WALTON, Ky., July 25, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Verst Packaging, a division of Verst Logistics headquartered in Walton, Kentucky, will host members of the Kentucky Guild of Brewers for a guided tour and demonstration at the Verst facility in Hebron, Kentucky, on July 27.
Verst is a member of the Guild and, said Peter Parker, Director of New Business Development for Beer, Wine and Spirits, "We thought it would be a great opportunity to let the brewers become even more familiar with the full range of our capabilities and services."

"We are really providing something special for the Craft Beer Market. There are other companies out there that do what we do, but what sets us apart is our vast expertise in Shrink Sleeve manufacturing and state-of-the-art Shrink Sleeve label application. We can support Craft Brewers and at the same time support Fortune 500 companies as well."
