Pak Mail Franchisee John Peters was featured in the May 2013 issue of Franchising USA Magazine in an article about his Tucson, Arizona store.
Peters, who opened a Pak Mail over a decade ago in 2003, tells the story of how he was drafted after graduating from the University of Arizona, sold all kinds of things online with Ebay, and eventually opened a Pak Mail location.
Let’s face it - there are a lot of women to celebrate on Mother’s Day. Your mom, stepmom, grandmother, sister, mother-in-law. And then there are your close friends, neighbors, godmother, expecting mothers, and that aunt who has always been like a mom. The list can go on and on (because that’s how great the fairer sex is!), but don’t let that stop you from honoring all the women in your life that are mothers in one way or another. Whether they’re 20 or 90 years old, have one child or ten, be sure you show them how special they are with a token of your appreciation.
Last week we celebrated the 43rd Earth Day. First celebrated on April 22, 1970, the day has grown into a worldwide celebration of our planet. Earth Day is the largest civic observance in the world with more than 1 billion people in over 150 countries participating in Earth Day activities each year.
Now that April has arrived and we’re officially into Spring, we’d like to take some time to talk about Pak Mail’s efforts to minimize our environmental impact, and how we help you do the same. On April 22nd, Earth Day will be celebrated internationally for the forty-third time. Since 1970, the day has been used to mark the modern environmental movement and the groundbreaking laws it spawned, including the Clean Air Act, the Clean Water Act, and the Endangered Species Act.
Packing and shipping stalwart Pak Mail Centers of America has decided to ramp up its marketing and advertising efforts by hiring a celebrity spokesperson. After mulling over dozens of options, the company decided to hire arcade video game legend Pac-Man.
“We just felt it was the most logical option,” said marketing coordinator Seth Sinclair. “Who doesn’t love Pac-Man? We want to pick up a larger demographic of customers. There’s no more timeless celebrity than Pac-Man.”
