FOR 40 YEARS
IT’S BEEN FOUR DECADES
since PPAI purchased an indus-
try tabloid and relaunched it
as its own monthly magazine.
Since that time, businesses’
needs have changed, the indus-
try has flourished, buyers have
become more sophisticated and
PPB
has evolved to keep
readers informed, edu-
cated and engaged.
Read on for a look
back at a remarkable
40 years beginning
