Market Research
The Packaging Services industry has performed well over the past five years with manufacturers looking to outsource non-core activities such as packaging, to reduce costs and remain competitive in the face of rising import penetration. As a result, industry revenue is expected to increase at an annualised 1.0% over the five years through 2017-18, to reach $4.1 billion. While packaging supplies is in itself on the rise, the custom packaging market is booming with the need for more personalised products in various industries.Whether its boxes, paper cups or retail packaging, the need for pre-designed, printed packaging is a solid performer to a packaging business owner. The growing range of food products manufactured in Australia alone has offered an opportunity for contract packagers to grow, particularly as food manufacturers seek to cut costs by outsourcing non-core operations such as packaging

Using the search data above, we take the sale price of a typical custom printed 20cm x 30cm x 30cm box to be $6. Purchasing this directly from our Manufacturer will cost approx $0.80c , giving this product a markup of approx 650%. Profit will be $5.20 / box however a typical custom print order requires a minimum order quantity of at least 50 boxes making each potential sale to be worth approx $260.
