How a Newark Food Importer Protected Its Supply Chain

Just across the river from Manhattan, Newark, NJ is one of the busiest shipping and logistics hubs on the East Coast. A food importer based near Port Newark–Elizabeth Marine Terminal was moving container after container of coffee, spices, and packaged foods from overseas markets into the U.S. But their outdated packaging was causing problems.

Cardboard cartons buckled in the damp New Jersey winters, wooden pallets splintered under heavy loads, and moisture damaged valuable products during ocean transit. Deliveries to New York City, Philadelphia, and Boston often faced delays, costing the company both time and money.

That’s when they partnered with Custom Packaging Products. We supplied food-grade FIBC bulk bags with moisture-resistant liners, durable plastic pallets, and heavy-duty pallet covers designed for East Coast weather and international shipping conditions. We also introduced slip sheets, helping the importer load more per container and reduce freight costs by 25–30% per shipment. Within months, product loss was down, efficiency was up, and the company strengthened its position as a leading supplier to supermarkets and distributors across the Northeast.
