Durham Box is supplying the Ethical Shellfish Company with e-commerce packaging to support the fishing company`s online fresh seafood delivery service.
Using sustainable methods, the Isle of Mull-based Ethical Shellfish Company`s core product is hand-dived scallops, fished from their own boat around Mull and the surrounding islands.
The company has established an online facility and its solid fibreboard supplier CRT Packaging asked Durham Box to design and supply an e-commerce packaging solution.
Durham Box`s Nozomi C18000 single-pass, high-speed LED inkjet corrugated packaging press produces short-run corrugated boxes for e-commerce businesses and start-ups, printed with low migration food safe inks.
Guy Grieve, Ethical Shellfish Company`s founder, said: [It was important that we paired with a company who could provide e-commerce packaging to meet the same top quality as the shellfish we provide. It was critical that the packaging would ensure that the shellfish and other products arrived with the customer in the same condition as when they left us. Durham box was recommended to us by CRT Packaging to supply the required packaging – it was a good call, as they have excelled in meeting our expectations and the feedback from our customers has been superb."
Andy Smith, Durham Box business development director-POS, said: [Many businesses like the Ethical Shellfish Company have been quick to respond and reinvent their offering – our own response needs to be equally quick and efficient. It has been a pleasure working with a company that, despite these challenging times, has been able to offer something different. We are delighted the packaging matched their high expectations and that of their customers."
