How a Chicago Food Processor Solved Its Logistics Bottleneck

On the South Side of Chicago, a family-run food processor was supplying flour, sugar, and spices to bakeries across the Midwest. Business was strong, but shipping was becoming a nightmare. Their old cardboard boxes collapsed under heavy loads, and wooden pallets cracked during transport from their warehouse near I-55 and the Chicago Sanitary & Ship Canal. Each damaged shipment meant lost profits and frustrated clients in Milwaukee, Detroit, and St. Louis.

That changed when they partnered with Custom Packaging Products. We supplied FIBC bulk bags, heavy-duty slip sheets, and moisture-resistant pallet covers designed for long-haul trucking and warehouse storage. By switching to our used bulk bags and recyclable pallet covers, the company cut costs by nearly 30% per shipment. They’ve since expanded operations to serve more restaurants and food distributors throughout Chicago, while maintaining the quality their customers expect.
