Supplement Packaging Company Case Study: Why Raw Nutrition’s New Procurement Manager Called Pak-Pro First

The Challenge: Finding a Supplement Packaging Company That Could Scale

As RAW Nutrition expanded its product portfolio, the company needed a more strategic and consistent approach to packaging procurement.

Hunter, the brand’s first procurement manager, was charged with establishing that process — evaluating packaging options, comparing pricing, coordinating artwork, and supporting a growing number of products and SKUs.

He needed more than a packaging vendor. He needed a responsive partner who could move quickly, work through complex projects, and help RAW Nutrition’s packaging stand out in a competitive market.

Why Pak-Pro

Hunter had worked with Tim and the Pak-Pro team in a previous role, where he experienced firsthand the company’s specialized capabilities, competitive pricing, open communication, and hands-on approach.

When he joined RAW Nutrition, Pak-Pro was one of the first supplement packaging companies he called.

He knew Pak-Pro would take the time to understand the company’s needs, consider challenges from his perspective, and do whatever possible to help the brand succeed. Pak-Pro’s flexibility, shared values, and status as a veteran-owned business made the partnership an even stronger fit.

The Pak-Pro Approach to Supplement Cartons

Pak-Pro worked closely with the Raw Nutrition team to:

  • Develop and refine packaging artwork
  • Produce new proofs and achieve accurate color matching
  • Navigate changing requirements and complex projects
  • Quickly adjust printing plates on-site when needed
  • Maintain clear, consistent communication throughout production
  • Deliver finished packaging in as little as three weeks following artwork approval

That partnership extends beyond the work Pak-Pro produces. When RAW Nutrition encountered a perforation issue with packaging printed by another supplier, the Pak-Pro team stepped in to help diagnose the problem and recommend a solution.

It wasn’t Pak-Pro’s packaging — but it was RAW Nutrition’s problem, and that was enough for the team to get involved.

The Result: A Supplement Packaging Company Ready to Grow With the Brand

RAW Nutrition gained a packaging partner equipped to support its continued growth with speed, flexibility, technical expertise, and responsive service.

Pak-Pro’s ability to produce printing plates on-site also creates a meaningful advantage when changes are required. In one instance, a plate adjustment was completed in approximately 25 minutes, helping the project continue with virtually no added delay.

“Pak-Pro is willing to move mountains to help us. They communicate, stay flexible, and work through the tough projects with us. I would recommend them to any company looking for a true packaging partner — especially one that needs a partner capable of scaling with its growth.”
