How an Oakland Coffee Importer Improved Supply Chain Efficiency
Near the Port of Oakland, one of the busiest container ports in the U.S., a specialty coffee importer was struggling with packaging failures. Their beans arrived in thin sacks that tore during unloading, wooden pallets broke under heavy loads, and moisture from ocean transport compromised freshness. By the time the shipments reached roasters in Berkeley, San Francisco, and San Jose, product losses were cutting into profits.
That’s when they partnered with Custom Packaging Products. We provided food-grade FIBC bulk bags, moisture-resistant poly liners, and durable plastic pallets built to withstand long voyages and Bay Area humidity. By switching to slip sheets and refurbished super sacks, they cut freight costs by nearly 25% per shipment while reducing product loss. Today, their beans move efficiently through the Port of Oakland, reaching roasters and distributors across California with better consistency and lower costs.
