Overview of the Packaging Industry
Unlike most industries where there may be 6-7 major manufacturers, the packaging industry is very fragmented
and segmented with thousands of manufacturers providing thousands of different and unique products. For most major corporations
it would take teams & teams of people concentrating just on packaging to keep up with the massive product offering and
changes in the packaging industry.
Add to this, the fact that most corporations today
are running lean and most their employees are over-utilized, and you can quickly see why corporations are spending MILLIONS
of $$$ more on packaging annually than they need to…Money that should be going directly to there bottom line.
Today many Manufacturers/Distributors of Packaging Products are offering to do Consultant “Type”
Work for Customers…We applaud their efforts…but, Do they really provide Independent Solutions?...Would they
really recommend radical changes if it meant eliminating their products? - An old adage comes
to mind about the “Fox guarding the Hen House”!
