Targeting Businesses Frustrated With Supply Chain Woes, Packaging Converter Promotes Just-in-Time Delivery

By Linda Casey

Noting supply chain challenges hitting businesses in general, AGE Industries is promoting how its dynamic inventory management system is empowering the packaging converter and supplier to make just-in-time delivery of corrugated boxes and other packaging. In a written statement sent to Packaging Impressions, the converter noted that its “inventory management system and efficient operations for timely delivery of packaging materials” keep the converter’s manufacturing and distribution flowing.

The converter also noted that its “Custom design solutions enhance the protection of products and reduce shipping costs, and custom printing increases brand awareness and supports point-of-purchase marketing campaigns.” Finally, the converters made sure to spotlight that its six manufacturing facilities in the United States and Mexico enable AGE Industries to ship to any location in the United States, Mexico, and Canada. Products can also be delivered to anywhere in the world by AGE Industries or one of its affiliated partners, providing customers with an integrated program for satisfying all their custom design and packaging needs.

The move highlights an opportunity for converters as supply chain challenges ease, and highlights a couple of questions smart converters should be asking themselves: What am I doing to increase my operation’s efficiency and timeliness? How can I promote these improvements to earn new business?
