SoOPak provides online ordering of short-run cartons

The carton converter based in Toronto received great interest in its online development from brand owner and CPG attendees at the SIAL Canada 2014 show. The international food and beverage tradeshow attracts more than 750 exhibitors from 50 countries and 14,000 attendees.

SoOPak serves the carton packaging needs for a wide range of markets. This includes the cosmetic, entertainment, food and confectionary, pharmaceutical and personal care industries. SoOPak also produces promotional and point-of-sale materials such as portfolios, leader cards and tags, inserts, wraps, boxes and displays. To produce this variety of short-run packaging and promotional items, SoOPak has assembled high-quality, multi-color offset presses and a high level of system integration, including in-house pre-press services, platemaking, UV coating, embossing and windowing capabilities.

Carol Jiang, president of SoOPak, said: ‘We are the first company with an online folding carton platform to make online ordering easy – providing instant quotes and live support from our product specialists. This is for the speed and ease of our customers. With as little an order as 500 boxes, we provide our customers with a fast 10 day turnaround time. After two years of research and concentrated effort, my team was able to unveil a new, easy and economical folding carton business on the internet. For anyone looking for a short-run, unique folding carton, SoOPak can deliver.

‘The SIAL Canada show provided us with the opportunity to present our product to an international audience of food and beverage manufacturers. We made a lot of positive noise.’
