As you look near and far for your next generation of packaging, carefully consider the challenges before you decide to import. In many cases, customers overlook the soft costs associated with managing a supply chain that spans great distances and cultures. 

Whether you have a Packaging Distributor involved or if you are managing the process yourself, there are many things to consider: 

• quality, 
• logistics, 
• price, 
• inventory and 
• expertise.

Setting your company and team up for success means making sure you have transparency into how things will be managed.
