Sunrise Packaging Launches New E-Commerce Site: Few Competitors Ready to do the Same

Blaine, MN, July 13, 2008 --(PR.com)-- Moving to e-commerce is becoming increasingly more common for businesses with products to sell. E-commerce allows consumers to quickly shop for what they need online, compare prices with other companies and efficiently track orders. While e-commerce is now common for most industries, the packaging industry is lagging behind.

“Packaging companies don’t want to lose the flexibility of person-to-person ordering and consumers demand fast, easy ordering that can be done on their own time,” says president and CEO of Sunrise Packaging, Mark Hector. “We feel that we have found the middle ground and a perfect compromise to this dilemma.”

Most ordering will continue to take place over the phone or through fax or e-mail, but stock products - those products that can be quickly ordered in large quantities with little need for customization - can be ordered online through shop.sunpack.com, Sunrise Packaging’s new e-commerce site launching today.

For a packaging company, customization is everything. Many packaging companies have not even thought of selling their products directly online because of the level of customization that cannot be achieved through e-commerce. However, for customers who are interested in buying stock products, a fast, easy, user-friendly e-commerce Web site is a desirable option.

Through shop.sunpack.com, clients can easily purchase the stock products they need in bulk without going through a sales or customer service representative. Clients who need custom packaging can still create a custom product through traditional ordering methods.

Sunrise Packaging’s CD/DVD pages, CD/DVD injection molded cases and clear overlay binders are currently available online. Eventually, Sunrise Packaging hopes to have all of its stock products available for purchase by online consumers.

Sunrise Packaging is a solutions-oriented, creative design packaging company. Sunrise Packaging has been manufacturing stock and custom vinyl, casemade and poly binders, media packaging and custom packaging since 1982. Sunrise Packaging operates out of Blaine, MN.
