Manistee, Michigan – Many don’t realize that Manistee is home to one of the world’s largest distributors of shrink wrap at Dr. Shrink, Inc. With global access, influence, and reputation, Dr. Shrink is raising attention for breast cancer awareness and giving back to 2 local cancer organizations for Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
“This year we are trying to really engage our customers from around the globe. We are stocking up on our “Pink Wrap” and will be promoting it all month long through our “Wrap for a Cause” campaign” says Mike Stenberg, President & Founder of Dr. Shrink, Inc. “With every roll purchased a portion of that sale will go to benefit the Paint the Town Pink and the Stomp Out Cancer Fund, both benefiting the local Manistee Community.”
“As we are getting into the height of the marine recreation wrapping season, we think some of our customers will really jump on the opportunity,” says Ryan Polcyn, Vice President of Sales & Marketing for Dr. Shrink, Inc. “Since you need to wrap your boat anyway, why not “Wrap for a Cause” and also get the added benefit of knowing you are helping in the breast cancer awareness efforts.”
In the past, Dr. Shrink purchased Pink Wrap for their own use to generate awareness during cancer awareness events throughout Manistee County. You may have noticed the large rock along River Street at the Manistee Municipal Marina wrapped for the Paint the Town Pink downtown walk, along with their bus, wrapped in full Pink Wrap.
This year for the entire month of October, Dr. Shrink hopes to sell 100 rolls of their 17’x110’ 7-mil Pink Wrap all across the world, which will generate about $1,000 that will directly benefit the SOC & Paint the Town Pink Fund.
“We have some amazing customers all across the globe that we have incredible relationships with,” says Stenberg, “we are really optimistic that we will be able to meet our goal and sell out of our Pink Wrap this October. I’m looking forward to seeing our Pink Wrap in application photos in all different countries. The goal is to spread breast cancer awareness on a global level with our Pink Wrap.”
