At Kaufman Container, we understand managing costs, lead times, and logistics can be frustrating. With ever-changing tariffs, challenges multiply. Even if your business isn’t directly impacted, the packaging industry is—and you may feel the ripple effects. Now is the time to evaluate your strategy and find improvements.
🟥 Let’s Talk Tariffs:
The recent 30-day pause on 25% tariffs for Canadian and Mexican goods is positive, but businesses still brace for what’s next. Meanwhile, the additional 10% tariff on Chinese imports remains, making cost management critical. If you purchase from non-U.S. companies, exploring alternatives is crucial.
🟩 Endless Sourcing Options:
A key advantage of working with a trusted packaging distributor is access to a vast supplier network. Kaufman Container partners with over 700 pre-approved suppliers, ensuring high-quality, tariff-free options. Our sourcing capabilities help you avoid price spikes while maintaining product quality and availability.
🟦 Stock Packaging Solutions:
Beyond sourcing, we offer a vast selection of stock packaging ready to ship without added tariff costs. Our inventory includes glass and plastic bottles, jars, closures, and dispensing components like pumps and sprayers. Plus, our strong industry partnerships give us leverage to negotiate better pricing and ensure priority access to materials.
