Pietra has aggregated top packaging factories around the world to find you the best quality suppliers at the lowest cost. Pietra members get access to all the manufacturing capabilities of factories and suppliers and provides all the tools to discovery, communicate with, pay, and ship directly from factories. It's the smartest, fastest, and easiest way to build your brand.

Pietra's sourcing module is split up by categories so that you can:

1) Find factories to make products for your brand

2) Order custom packaging direct from packaging suppliers

3) Submit custom project requests and let suppliers reach out to you

Pietra gives members an organized view of factories and suppliers. Members can search for products and find factories that make them. By default, you will see a list of factories that you can filter by country, region, sampling price, production minimums, production pricing, and more. The goal is to build a global marketplace for you to communicate with, compare, and decide on the best supplier for your business.

Pietra also highlights past projects so you can get a sense of who they have worked with before. And remember, when it doubt, you can always contact the factory and ask them!

How do you use Pietra to source custom packaging for your brand?

Pietra has packaging suppliers and factories all around the world that are ready to work with you for all your packaging needs. For popular items, you can quickly order items like eco-friendly poly mailers, corrugated shipping boxes, and card stock packaging. Pietra makes it easy to select the quantity and start chatting with a supplier to finish the order.

If you'd like to browse the marketplace, you can also do so by browsing the different packaging factory profiles.

Remember, if you plan ahead, you can get significantly lower cost packaging options by ordering packaging from overseas and shipping it by boat.
