Your food production is up and running, but you might be running into walls with space, labour, or cost constraints for packaging your product. I’m Jarrod DiZazzo, the Vice President here at Industrial Packaging and I’m going to be answering the top five questions you might have when it comes to outsourcing your packaging with a supply chain services provider. I’ve been working here since 2001, and I’ve done almost every job on our supply chain services side of the business. And I’ve helped some major brands succeed by outsourcing their packaging with us. So what are supply chain services?
First of all, its primary food packaging. This is putting exposed food into a retail ready-to-use package. Secondly, there’s secondary packaging: Taking an already packaged good, and combining it with other like items into a retail-ready package; things as sacks, cubes and trays. Retail-ready displays: Putting product into a corrugated display that can be placed anywhere in the store, and it’s ready to be shopped. Kitting and rework: This is assembling items into a complete, finished good or repackaging goods that aren’t correct.
So who’s a good fit for this product? Well, manufacturing companies want to make their products in bulk and leverage their efficiencies. Companies who are looking to co-mingle similar products and flavours into one easy-to-use retail package. Companies who are looking to put their products in different areas of the retail stores. Companies who are running out of capacity maybe with space, or have difficulty accessing labour.
Some companies aren’t a good fit. Some of these companies are start-ups, or if you have a small volume application and a large variety of SKUs. As well as anything liquids or powders. You’ll have to have the capacity to manufacture or purchase what you want to be packaged. You’ve got a good understanding of the timeline that you want to get your products to the store.
You understand what your packaging requirements will be as well as any graphics that have already been outlined. The end-user or customer has committed to putting these items in the store. So, why do it? You’ll now be able to focus on your core competencies. You’ll have a fixed cost after manufacturing.
You’ll have the ability to scale these products up and down with changing markets. You can reduce your supply chain lead time to your customer or end-user. If you choose not to move forward, you may not be able to move as quickly as your customer needs to and you may lose some opportunities. You’ll lose your ability to be the first market with a new mix. By not focusing on your core competencies, some of your processes may begin to slip.
As a single cost per unit. We will not be less expensive. If you factor in your space, overhead, materials, labour, overtime, and opportunity cost; you will see a huge, huge value! You will end up spending less by year-end as a business by having these predictable costs. We’re typically between four cents to 40 cents per unit, depending on how complex your project is.
Reach out to us with what you’re trying to accomplish. What’s important to you, and what do you want to get out of this partnership? Have some samples sent out to us and we can start the quoting process. From the time that you’re ready to go, the samples are mocked up, and you want to start this partnership, it can take anywhere from two weeks to six weeks to get your products in here, repackaged, and back out to the market. All right.
