Hello!

I'm an American living permanently in Italy, and am in the process of starting up a small cp soap and B&B business here.  I just found out about this forum, and am happy to be here!

I'm having some trouble finding the packaging I want (can find everything in the US, but not here!), so I'll probably be asking some advice regarding packaging suppliers soon.  I'm meeting with my technical director this evening to discuss some particulars, but there are some technical/legal aspects we are trying to figure out that I may also ask you guys about! Italian beaurocracy is kicking my butt....

Hi ya and welcome to the forum. Sorry can't help with the packaging qst., though I think it has come up before so others should be able to answer. The more posts you notch up, the more boards will open for your viewing. We like pics so please post some, I know you have them. Grin

Hi Fiddletree and a warm welcome to the forum!!

Oooh... lovely!  I love Italy!

There's a packaging-specific board that may be of use, might be worth a look through  Smiley

I hope you enjoy it here  :buttrf:
