If your business is considering switching your packaging supplier, Peter Marsh Group offers a seamless, UK-based solution backed by BRC AA+ certification and nearly 200 years of expertise.
Here’s a step-by-step guide to show just how easy it is to make the move.
Step 1: Initial Contact
The process begins with a simple conversation. Whether you call, email, or use the online contact form, the Business Development Team at Peter Marsh Group will gather essential information about your business:
- Current packaging types (e.g., block bottom, sewn, or roll bottom sacks)
- Product specifications (weight, volume, material requirements)
- Branding and printing requirements
- Current challenges with your existing supplier
This initial step is about understanding your needs, no obligation, just a clear picture of your requirements.
Step 2: Packaging Assessment
Once your information is received, the Peter Marsh Group team conducts a comprehensive packaging assessment. This includes:
- Reviewing your current packaging materials and designs
- Evaluating production and filling requirements
- Identifying opportunities to improve sustainability, durability, or branding
- Considering regulatory compliance (BRC, food safety, or chemical handling standards)
This assessment ensures that any switch will be smooth and fully compatible with your existing operations.
Step 3: Proposal and Samples
After assessing your needs, Peter Marsh Group provides a tailored proposal. This includes:
- Recommended sack type (e.g., block bottom, roll bottom, stitched)
- Material options (recyclable, biodegradable, multi-ply)
- Custom printing and branding solutions
- Delivery timelines and pricing
Samples of proposed sacks are sent for trial use to ensure your production line runs smoothly and that the design meets your brand standards. This stage eliminates guesswork and ensures confidence in the final product.
Step 4: Production Planning
Once the samples are approved, the team works with you to plan production and delivery. Local UK manufacturing allows for:
- Faster lead times compared to overseas suppliers
- Flexibility for urgent or last-minute orders
- Closer quality oversight, with the ability to visit the Liverpool facility if needed
Production schedules are coordinated with your requirements to minimise downtime and ensure your supply chain remains uninterrupted.
Step 5: Full Transition
The final step is the full transition to Peter Marsh Group. This includes:
- Delivering the first bulk orders of your new sacks
- Ensuring smooth integration into your existing filling and packing processes
- Ongoing support from the Business Development and Technical teams to fine-tune any details
Once complete, your business benefits from high-quality, sustainable, BRC AA+ certified paper sacks, all produced locally with the reliability of a trusted UK manufacturer.
