Packaging Options

We offer a variety of packaging solutions sized to suit your needs. From retail pouches to one-ton soft totes, we have the equipment to fill it all. Most ingredients are sold in 25lb bags, 50lb bags, or 2000lb totes. The smaller packaging is generally used for our co-packaging service, but arrangements can be made for orders of sufficient quantity. Please feel free to ask about specialty packing.
