How Much Does Custom Food Packaging Cost?

The honest answer

The cost of custom food packaging depends on your choices, so a free quote on your exact specification is the accurate way to know. This guide explains what drives the price so you can make informed decisions.

What drives the cost

Size and material. Printing, including full color and windows. Finishes and any food appropriate coatings. The packaging type, since a barrier bag, a bakery box, and a folding carton differ in cost. Quantity, since unit cost falls as volume rises. A clear quote shows these tradeoffs.

How to keep it affordable

Choose the packaging type that matches how the product is sold rather than over building. Size the packaging to the product. Use kraft for a natural look that is often economical. Use free design help so the artwork is right the first time. Take advantage of no minimum ordering to avoid overbuying while knowing higher volumes lower the unit price, plus price matching and the 25 percent first order discount.
