What We Do

At MPKi Packaging, we deliver real solutions and real value, focusing on what is important to our clients through global sourcing and offshore footprint development in the packaging industry

Our approach combines insight and innovation from multiple disciplines, within various packaging industry segments, and our goal is to pass this knowledge on to our clients’ operations—anywhere in the world.

Since the supply-chain turmoil of 2020 attributed to COVID-19 and the ongoing geo-political turmoil, clients have been reaching out to MPKi Packaging to manage their offshore packaging supply chains through our network of packaging and engineering teams—based on the ground and across the world.

Some of our clients engage MPKi to manage individual category supply networks, while others require much broader solutions involving multiple packaging category and supply networks in multiple countries that will also involve the management and gate-keeping of all artwork management activities on behalf of our clients. Every client have different requirements, and we look forward to talking to you to learn how we can customize a solution that meets your specific demands.
