Three qualities to look out for when choosing a supplier

When looking for the right packaging supplier for your business, there are three main considerations to take into account. These are as follows:

1) Reliability – One of the most critical qualities of a leading packaging supplier is reliability. This means supplying products on time, in full and at the right price. With packaging being such a critical component of many businesses, a reliable supplier is essential in ensuring that production schedules are met and customers are not left waiting.

2) Quality – The quality of packaging products is essential as it determines how effective and safe they are for the intended application. High-quality packaging products are also essential in ensuring that goods remain fresh, intact and safe during transportation and storage. Be sure that the packaging offered meets stringent quality control standards. 

3) Ease of doing business – With many businesses relying on multiple suppliers, placing orders and ensuring that production schedules are met can be a challenge. A leading packaging supplier should make the process of sourcing and buying products as straightforward as possible. This includes providing user-friendly ordering systems, having efficient and responsive customer service and being able to offer bespoke solutions where necessary.

Other qualities of a good supplier

Other factors to consider when choosing a packaging supplier include sustainability, reach, stability and contribution to society. Sustainable packaging is becoming increasingly important and a reputable supplier should be able to offer environmentally friendly options where possible. Custom Bulk Bags is committed to sustainability and has implemented many eco-friendly initiatives in its production and distribution processes.

In terms of reach, a leading packaging supplier should be able to offer a broad range of products and services and supply products to a wide geographic area.

We have manufacturing and distribution facilities in KwaZulu-Natal and Bloemfontein.

Lastly, a leading packaging supplier should contribute to society positively, be a responsible corporate citizen, have strong corporate social responsibility policies and support the communities they operate in. We place a focus on empowering women and youth in our local communities.
