About Us
OUR MISSION
Utilizing our proprietary online application, customers create their own custom design to be printed on a variety of our high-quality packaging products, on demand, with zero tooling costs and no minimum order quantities. Ecommerce mailers, gift boxes, retail packaging, counter displays, donation bins and labels. At Buyboxes, we back this design suite with a team of experienced packaging professionals and the extensive resources of our parent company, Rand-Whitney.
HOW BUYBOXES WAS BORN
In 2017 Rand-Whitney Container redefined the limits of custom printed packaging by creating an online packaging design studio, empowering their customers to create their own custom branded packaging, printed on demand – with zero tooling costs and no minimum orders. The company backed this concept and online studio with a team of experienced professionals and granted them access to Rand-Whitney’s extensive national resources. Buyboxes, a new division of Rand-Whitney Container, was born.
Like any child, Buyboxes wanted to stamp our own mark in the box world and make our parent proud. We started with custom printed gift boxes, and have grown to apply the same client-designed, on-demand concept to e-commerce mailers, retail packaging, donation bins, recyclable recycling bins, structural packaging, stickers and labels.
Due to our online application, supportive team, and consistent, high-quality product, our return customer base has grown. So too has the size of our customers and the quantity of product ordered. To accommodate this new demand, Buyboxes has reorganized the business into two segments: Buyboxes Studio to support small business orders and Buyboxes Business to service large volume customers.
As our family grows, we will remain true to our packaging roots, and stay focused on our mission: Reinforce your brand, present your product at its best, and delight your customers with a memorable unboxing experience.
