Why does Blue Box Partners exist?
Because many companies are looking for a strategic partner in Europe to provide them with the packaging solutions they need. These are companies that see packaging as a key marketing element and value the figure of a local representative who can support them at a European level – in their own language – and guarantee quality and a just-in-time service.
Who is behind BBP?
The four alliance partners are: Hinojosa (Spain), VPK Packaging Group (Belgium), Klingele Papierwerke GmbH & Co.KG (Germany) and Cart-One SRL (Italy). All four companies are members of the European Economic Interest Grouping (EEIG) and share a common philosophy and strategy. They are family-run businesses with a long tradition and proven success in their home markets.
As a result, they are able to provide customers with the expertise, production capacity and knowledge necessary to meet any requirement from a single point of contact.
A successful partnership
Blue Box Partners achieves success through innovation, reliability and cooperation based on partnership. Thanks to our hierarchical organisation, work and communication structures, we have turned Blue Box into a powerful strategic marketing alliance in Europe that has grown steadily over the years.
