Company Profile (AI Text) Name: PAKIBLE Canonical URL: https://wefunder.com/pakible Updated at: 2026-06-02T05:00:03Z Tagline: Custom packaging, done. Description: What they do: Pakible lets anyone create custom product packaging online. Using their online editor, customers can fully customize and brand their own retail packaging or shipping boxes in minutes. All they do is upload their artwork, choose from a variety of vetted packaging options that meet their needs, and then purchase the quantity they want. Pakible routes the order to the most qualified manufacturer from their network, and customers can receive samples in only 10 days.Why it's a big deal: Designing and purchasing custom packaging is an industry that has been left behind by technology. The design and purchasing process can take 3-4 months of phone calls with manufacturers and faxing specs back and forth. Pakible is bringing the industry into the 21st century by standardizing the design and manufacturing process. Customers can design their packaging in minutes, and Pakible automatically forwards the order to the best manufacturer in their network for that kind of packaging. Companies no longer need to deal with long negotiations with manufacturers or have in house packaging expertise. Pakible handles it all with a model that’s always less expensive than going direct. It’s no wonder they’re already profitable and shipped over 1,000,000 units last month.

A: First I want to say, we're profitable today. So no one is investing in us to "keep the lights on". We're going to be using the money to ramp everything up and go faster. 1) Hiring: 2 engineers, sales lead, & a manufacturing specialist 2) Adding new packaging styles every week to add more options. These have a one time setup cost of $500-1000. 3) Ramping up customer acquisition now that we have the proper manufacturing in place. - Q: How big is your immediate market beyond digital? What are some clients that you might cater to as you expand in lithography? A: It's $85B in the US. This includes everything from corrugated boxes to plastics (Apple style plastic inserts, action figure molds, etc) to flexible packaging like the pouch bags we made for Soylent. Lithography/Flexography come into play as a matter of scale. As soon as any current (or new) client starts ordering over 1000 units, we'll switch over the manufacturing process to leverage litho or flexo because its more cost efficient. We've already done this for a few customers and we've setup t... - Q: How do you manage government regulations for certain types of customers who need to comply with these types of retrictions or mandates? A: Which type of restrictions are you referring to? - Q: You mentioned 18% margin in the video, is that gross margin, operating margin or net margin? A: Gross margin. Its actually 20% now since we negotiated better rates with our manufacturers. - Q: Do you offer high recycled-content and recyclable packages? If so, do you promote them, i.e. you point out that they're available? Do you offer those clam-shell atrocities? A: We're going to offer recycled materials for all of our styles as an option to select. You mean the plastic clamshells used for retail packaging? Not today, but it something we're looking to add. Manufacturing process is a little harder for that but we have a plan.
