For farms that direct market and sell their grass-fed and pasture-raised products through buying clubs or farmer's markets there are many important factors to consider when choosing the best box and packaging options. From the dimensions, the thickness of cardboard and even to how your boxes fit on your pallets and shelves are all important factors that need to be considered. This video describes what we've learned over the past several years of direct marketing at Seven Sons Farms.
Here are a few factors to consider:
- Are your box dimensions conducive for palletizing?
- Will your box size work well for easy accessibly at the pickup location?
