According to Mr. Kim:“ With small and medium-sized businesses accounting for 99% of all South Koren enterprises, 89% of employment, and strong government support, we’re excited to enter this market. ePac offers game-changing flexible packaging for brands that previously had limited options for sourcing their packaging. Our customers will no longer be limited to importing their packaging, purchasing far more than they need, or applying labels to blank pouches. Our focus is on helping small brands grow with great packaging and our customers’ products stand out on retail shelves and portray an impressive image on e-commerce sites.”
ePac is the industry leader in digitally printed flexible packaging, serving brands of all sizes, but in particular small and medium-sized enterprises. With a value proposition of 10-15 day turnaround, specialization in short and medium run length orders, and the elimination of plates, brands can now order to demand and avoid costly inventory and obsolescence. Built on breakthrough digital printing technology from Hewlett Packard (HP, Inc), ePac offers customizable finished pouches and roll stock with photo-quality graphics, enabling all brands to go to market faster and to rapidly make changes to packaging design.
Added Jack Knott, ePac’s CEO: “ South Korea is an advanced country technologically, and local brands will benefit greatly from our all-digital flexible packaging manufacturing platform. In addition, QR code scan rates are among the highest in the world, so our smart packaging solution, ePacConnect, will provide brands new solutions for engaging with consumers, protecting their brand, and gaining new market insights.”
