Our take
The €1T global packaging market suffers from fragmentation and low digitisation, making sourcing a headache for both buyers and suppliers. Customers battle opaque pricing and cumbersome processes, while suppliers struggle for visibility and market reach. This translates to missed cost savings, wasted time, and limited access to sustainable options.
Packmatic tackles this head-on with its fully digital packaging marketplace. Launched in 2021, it connects businesses to a network of over 400 European suppliers in just a few clicks. Its platform matches companies of all sizes with the right supplier for their needs, unlocking an average of 15% cost savings and opening doors to sustainable alternatives.
With rising price pressures and sustainability demands across industries, Packmatic is poised to disrupt the market and become a category leader. Its tech platform offers a win-win solution, optimising costs and promoting sustainable packaging choices for a more responsible future.
