Why is this business successful?

Clients have been building over the years through word of mouth and via a business website with products for sale online. The goodwill is strongly supported by the return generated over this long period of time, driven from these key elements, wholesale, retail and online, ensuring future success. 

The product itself is unique with biodegradable eco-friendly features. The demand for fast food and convenience is driving sales of food packaging, giving clients and their customers the option to purchase products that decrease waste and the carbon footprint tend to sell first and fast as there is so much awareness about the impacts on the environment. Fast food is here to stay and so is the need for fast food packing with these unique features. 

The strong market and population increase in Geelong, The Surf Coast and Bellarine regions provide the foundation for sustained growth. The business has successfully differentiated itself from competitors through high-quality service and timely delivery of stock. With a highly organised business, trained staff, business operations, procedures and a vast variety of customers, there is a genuine opportunity to expand.
