AICC has released ‘Resilience & Reinvention’, a new episode of its Breaking Down Boxes podcast, featuring an insightful conversation with Randall Rigsby, Founder of Altex Packaging, in Anniston, AL.
Hosted by Simona Georgescu of Adduco Communications and Brian Suarez of Inter-Continental Corp., the episode offers a compelling look at Rigsby’s unconventional path to entrepreneurship and the lessons he has learned along the way.
Born in Saudi Arabia and later returning to his family’s home state of Alabama, Rigsby’s journey is defined by adaptability and perseverance. He charted his own course, drawing on his determination to build something of his own. With the unwavering support of his wife, he founded Altex Packaging, navigating the complexities of running a business, managing a diverse workforce, and evolving with industry changes.
Throughout the conversation, Rigsby reflects on the pivotal moments that have shaped his approach to business, from weathering the 2010 economic crisis to embracing diversification and the role of design evolution in staying competitive. He discusses the importance of personal relationships, company culture, and how transparency with employees fosters loyalty and teamwork.
“This episode is a great reminder that success isn’t about a straight path—it’s about resilience, relationships, and a willingness to adapt,” said AICC President Mike D’Angelo. “Randall’s story will resonate with anyone who has faced challenges in business and come out stronger on the other side.”
