paclawyer Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 Looking for any leads I can get on a supplier of boxes/sleeves. Our bottles were delivered in boxes of 12 and we'd like to distribute our spirits in six packs. Our bottle is a St. Louis Oval.

Brothers Vilgalys Spirits Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 Boxes are almost always cheapest from whatever local packaging companies are near you. Cardboard is very cheap to make, so all the cost is in transportation. You may also be able to get away with re-using the dividers from the 12 packs if you tear them in half.

Michaelangelo Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 Phil, Talk to your distributor first, in many cases they break down the cases into whatever their customer wants, so you shouldn't have to buy new cartons, you can just get by with putting a label on the cases you have. If you really feel strongly about buying cartons call Tom Lenkart at Champion Container 708-989-9008. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salishseaorganicliqueurs Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 I Would recommend The Box Maker out of Kent, WA. They have decent pricing and pretty much no minimum order. Great and easy to work with. http://www.boxmaker.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluestone Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 Boxes are almost always cheapest from whatever local packaging companies are near you. Cardboard is very cheap to make, so all the cost is in transportation. This is true. I worked in a box factory 10 odd years ago. The vast majority of corrugated container manufacturers just sell regionally for that reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
