Retail and E-commerce Brands

Shelf-ready and courier-ready packaging, labels and point of sale print for brands selling in store and online.

Pain Points

What Goes Wrong in This Sector

Mailer cartons arriving crushed because board grade was chosen on price rather than on the courier network

Label adhesive failing on chilled or textured bottles after the first shipment

Point of sale material for a hundred stores arriving in one unsorted pallet

Packaging, insert card and sticker each sourced from a different factory and never quite matching

Requirements

What Buyers in This Sector Actually Need

  • Matched colour across box, label and insert
  • Board and adhesive chosen for the real transit route

Answers

Retail and E-commerce Brands Questions

How quickly can you produce for a launch date?

Digital work runs in 1-2 working days, offset commercial print in 4-5 working days and large quantity orders in 10-12 working days. Add 3-4 working days for express or air, or 15-18 days by sea.

Can you supply several different items as one shipment?

Yes. That is the usual reason buyers in this sector come to us: the box, the label, the insert and the branded giveaway are printed in the same group and consolidated into one consignment on one invoice.

What do you need from us to quote?

The item, the quantity, the size, the material or finish if you have a preference, and the date you need it landed. Artwork can follow later.

Do you supply samples before a bulk run?

Stock samples are free. Custom sample cost is refunded once you confirm the bulk order.
