Mr. Lerman has over 40 years of experience in packaging.

He started eBottles.com, an online catalog of bottles and closures, in 2002 together with Josh Erlanger the CTO. eBottles420.com grew out of the success of eBottles.com and has become the market leader in the supply of rigid packaging to the legal cannabis industry.

He is a past President of the Packaging Association of Distributors and Manufacturers and has served on the Advisory Board of Packaging Technology Magazine.
