The Association of the Greek Manufacturers of Packaging & Materials was founded in 1999 by the leading packaging manufacturing enterprises in Greece. Members of the Association are companies producing packaging materials out of paper and carton, aluminum, tin, plastics, glass, wood and natural fibers.

The 2007 changes in the statute of AGMPM extended its scope and allowed the expansion of its membership. Now, members of the Association can also be packaging machine manufacturers, companies providing services to the packaging industry (e.g. packaging designers, logistics services, packaging engineering and marketing services), and contract packers.

AGMPM is member of the World Packaging Organization (WPO).
