    Boxes and other packaging? (food grade)

    So, I am desperately trying to find a NZ business that 'still' makes boxes for Chocolates and hard bottomed plastic bags.

    Either my search abilities are useless or really there is no more business in the whole of NZ that creates decent food grade packaging that carries the "made in NZ". And no, I don't want plastic containers for chinese take away...I make chocolates.

    Any orders from China involve in ordering several thousand boxes at a time..(sorry this is a fledgling business), and well I am not to sure what to do, other than send an order to the US or Europe as companies there allow for smaller order quantities.

    Anyone here knows a business that could help?


    thanks

    nope unfortunately not.

    if I go down the way of using plastic, it would have to be re-usable containers. Systema comes to mind, they operate and produce here and are capable of small runs.

    note sure about the melted in a box look, but I can help you with the regular looking chocolate. Belgium chocolate with nice yummi fillings.

    Send me two dozen chocolates in a couple of those sample boxes and I will see what I can organise. The chocolates will not be consumed, they are for sizing purposes only
