Putting the Best to the Test
A recent example highlights the effectiveness of MAKR through a collaboration with a Maine apple orchard company, Brackett’s Orchards, utilizing the program to design packaging for a new retail product, Brackett’s Best Apple Chips.
The process started with Brackett’s selecting a package format, modifying it for the targeted size, adding a closure, and then dropping in different graphic options. Several options were reviewed to determine the optimum dimensions and the best graphics representing the brand and product. MAKR brought it all together, allowing Brackett’s to bring a new product concept quickly and easily to commercialization.
"As an orchardist, I am focused on growing the highest quality fruit – not on food packaging. So, when the demand for our apple chips increased, I needed a packaging expert to help get these to market," states Josh Paulin, owner of Brackett’s Orchards. "By utilizing MAKR by DASL, our ideas came to life, and we easily created package designs and evaluated artwork ideas. From concept to design to prototype testing, ProAmpac shortened the product launch from what I thought would be many months to weeks. We're thrilled to have our newly designed Brackett’s Best Apple Chips packaging thanks to our collaboration with ProAmpac!"

MBK Partners and Young Poong on the Verge of Victory in the Battle for Control of Korea Zinc11.3.2025 01:01:00 CET | Press Release
A South Korean court has halted key resolutions from Korea Zinc’s recent extraordinary general meeting(EGM), paving the way for MBK Partners and Young Poong to secure a majority on the company’s board. The ruling, issued on March 7 by the Seoul Central District Court, effectively suspends most decisions made at Korea Zinc’s extraordinary general meeting (EGM) in January, significantly weakening Chairman Choi Yun-beom’s control. As a result, MBK Partners and Young Poong, Korea Zinc’s largest shareholder, are now positioned to outnumber Chairman Choi’s camp on the board, thanks to the cumulative voting system. The system allows MBK Partners and Young Poong to elect more directors with each successive shareholder meeting, tilting the balance of power in their favor. The court ruled that restricting the voting rights of Young Poong’s Korea Zinc shares was unlawful. This decision nullified key resolutions from the company’s January 23 EGM, including a proposed cap of 19 board seats. It also
