We currently have 16 locations running and serving local brands and communities in the US, Canada, England, and Indonesia. Our network of manufacturing plants gives us the ability to serve local businesses everywhere, and digitally transfer production of any product to locations of our customer’s choosing to meet short delivery times, and minimize shipping costs. No other flexible packaging supplier can achieve this and ship finished products in 3 weeks or less.”
