Her Imprint: Milissa Bergman

Women in Print Alliance Member Milissa Bergman didn’t plan to build a career in procurement — and she certainly didn’t set out to land in packaging. With a background spanning healthcare, manufacturing, and finance, Milissa found her niche in sourcing, relationships, and problem-solving. On this episode of the Her Imprint podcast, she shares how joining Inovar Packaging opened her eyes to the depth, complexity, and impact of labels — and why print is far more powerful than most consumers realize.
