Rae came across several partners on Google. She chose Pouch Factory: “I saw that they had a neat price and short delivery time. There were also several options available in terms of the size of the packaging. The latter was very important to me: if the packaging was too big, it would look like it was not made for the product. The bar had to have a luxury look, so it had to fit perfectly. The fact that the Pouch Factory, like us, considers sustainability very important was a nice bonus.” Rae ordered a sample pack from the Pouch Factory, and one of the pack sizes turned out to be a good fit. We discussed the basics – whether the packs needed to be resealable, for example – but also important details. Did Wakuli prefer round or square corners? “The Pouch Factory had looked at our website and already recommended a certain finish themselves that would go nicely with the packaging of our other products. They were very interested in our company and the new coffee bar. I really liked that they didn’t just focus on what to do. Also, we didn’t have to wait long for an answer. There were times when I was startled awake at night and thought, I’ve never worked with this company before. A lot depends on this production, would this work out? After all, there was no time for trial packaging.”
