Retail Packaging

Custom retail boxes

If your business is in the cut-throat retail sector, you’ll likely know that your retail packaging can and should be a competitive advantage.

Retail packaging refers to the boxes, cartons, and materials used to package products for sale to consumers. Besides protecting products during transport to and from stores, retail packaging must also capture the attention of potential customers and stand out against competing products. Increasingly, consumers are also demanding that retail packaging be sustainable and easy to recycle.

Working closely with brands of varying sizes, at GWP we have the knowledge and expertise required for this most competitive market sector. Whether you require product packaging, point-of-sale displays, or even products to improve your warehousing, we can design, manufacture, and print a custom solution.

More info on retail packaging

Virtually all sectors of the retail market are extremely competitive. In fact, the level of competition, pricing and promotion can prove too much for many products or brands. In fact, of the approximately 30,000 new products introduced every year, around 95 per cent fail.

So, every slight advantage can be crucial unless you have the luxury of an established, well-loved brand.

This is why the role of retail packaging has grown so significantly.

Unique packaging for retail

With most markets becoming increasingly crowded and competitive, any business or brand can risk being lost among the vast number of products vying for attention.

This struggle for awareness can be compounded by a poor perception caused by inconsistent appearance and, even worse, products that become damaged in storage or transit.

Fortunately, there are several ways to differentiate your products, gain increased visibility, and improve customer satisfaction.

For example, brightly coloured, visually striking point-of-sale displays can showcase your products at key locations in retail outlets. Added-value packaging can enhance customer satisfaction. And high-quality retail packaging can boost not only your sales but also your brand awareness and perception.

Retail packaging trends

Future trends in the retail sector, including the packaging requirement, can be hard to predict. The state of the economy often dictates how consumers spend their money.

Whereas some might have stayed loyal to a particular brand a few years ago, many consumers are exploring other options at present.

As such, the role of packaging has changed dramatically.

Brands are not just using packaging to display goods. They increasingly use retail packaging to differentiate their offerings, stand out in crowded marketplaces, display their concern for the environment, and attract the increasing number of “undecided” consumers.

Source retail packaging

Retail packaging can prove challenging. However, with over 30 years of experience helping companies like yours improve brand awareness, perception, and, of course, sales, GWP Group has become a valued partner with well-known high-street names and smaller niche brands.

However, we can help your business in so many more ways than simple retail packaging.

Need assistance getting products adopted by retailers? Shelf-ready packs can help. Need to look better in sales pitches? Why not use foam presentation cases? Struggling with fulfilling e-commerce orders? Let GWP improve your warehouse with Correx® picking bins and storage solutions.
