Live Webinar on Packaging Automation for U.S. Produce Operations
Dylan Baker, Quality Control and Research and Development Technician, reviews the cross conveyor on a Newtec weigher inside the Fox Solutions facility.
Fox Solutions, in partnership with JASA Packaging Solutions and Newtec, will host a live webinar on Tuesday, June 30, focused on how U.S. fresh produce operations can automate bag packing and where to begin.
The session launches the new "Let's Talk Automation" conversation series, bringing together leadership from three companies across the packaging automation supply chain for an open, unscripted discussion aimed at growers, packers, repackers, and processors.
Many operations know that labor shortages are worsening and that modernization is coming, but they remain uncertain about which steps to automate first and how to build the business case. The webinar will focus on how vertically integrated packaging solutions—combining weighing, bagging, equipment integration, and support—help operations modernize their packing lines with confidence.
"Most of the operations we talk to aren't asking whether to automate. They're asking where to start," said Aaron Fox, President of Fox Solutions. "This conversation is about cutting through that uncertainty. We're not here to sell one machine. We're here to help packers evaluate the full line and make decisions that hold up over the long term."
The webinar will feature speakers from Fox Solutions, JASA, and Newtec, with a live audience Q&A.
Fox says attendees will leave “with a clearer understanding of how to identify the bottlenecks worth automating, how to evaluate ROI beyond labor savings, and why integrated weighing and bagging systems outperform pieced-together lines on accuracy, output, and scalability.”
