Four editions built for different industries. One mission: direct manufacturer access and real savings on sustainable packaging.
Most brands buy through local distributors who add a 30–70% margin directly to the product. By purchasing direct from the manufacturers in our guides, that margin goes back in your pocket, immediately.
Direct relationships with manufacturers give you access to origin pricing on raw materials, a further saving on top of the distributor margin that most businesses never see.
Distributors typically build a 5–20% buffer into freight quotes to cover price-fluctuation risk. Direct freight relationships remove the buffer entirely.
Total compounding savings reach up to 70% compared to local retail-rate packaging brokers. For a business spending $100,000/year on packaging, that's up to $70,000 back, on every annual order, permanently.
