Why use Contract Packaging & Fulfillment Services?
- Club stores often want large and sometimes unusual packages and each one wants something different or one-of-a-kind packaging. You might have a 18-count package for Sam’s Club, it might be a 24-count pack for Costco, etc. They also might want a three or four varieties of flavors in their packages. When you think in terms of traditional manufacturing, that gives some plants fits.
- Sometimes the manufacturer can package their own products most of the year, but needs to supplement packaging with a contract packager to meet seasonal demand for its products for three to five months of the year.
- Still other companies would rather remain mostly a marketing company and try to stay out of the production side of the business as much as possible.
- But perhaps the most common reason to use contract packaging is the desire to avoid committing large capital resources to a new product or package type. In most cases, a customer can't justify automatic packaging of a new product until sales reach a sustainable level.
