1. Background
Soyad, the founder of a growing restaurant group in Turkmenistan, operates multiple dining concepts under the “Altyn” brand. At the time of our first contact, he had three successful restaurants, with a fourth—an upscale bakery concept—under renovation and scheduled to open between April and May 2026. A fifth location was already in the planning stage.
Soyad’s brands target a mid-to-high-end market, with a strong focus on store aesthetics and packaging presentation. His businesses are also highly active on social media, operating multiple local Instagram accounts with tens of thousands of followers, reflecting strong customer engagement and brand loyalty.
This project centered on upgrading the packaging for his new bakery concept. The scope included a full range of customized packaging: pyramid boxes, cake boxes, bread boxes, dessert packaging, and paper cups. However, Soyad’s previous experience with suppliers had been disappointing—especially in terms of service responsiveness and coordination—prompting him to look for a long-term packaging partner capable of delivering both quality and reliability.
2. The Challenge
2.1 High expectations for service speed and communication
Soyad clearly expressed frustration with previous suppliers who were slow to respond and difficult to coordinate with. For him, speed, clarity, and service quality were non-negotiable requirements for any future partnership.
2.2 Complex, high-end packaging requirements
The bakery concept required multiple premium box structures, including pyramid boxes and specialty dessert packaging with advanced finishes such as holographic effects. These designs demanded precision in structure, materials, printing, and finishing—details that are difficult to evaluate through online communication alone.
2.3 Strong focus on competitive pricing, without compromising quality
While Soyad repeatedly emphasized the need for competitive pricing, he was not seeking the lowest price at the expense of quality. The challenge was to strike the right balance between cost control and brand value.
2.4 Language and cross-border communication barriers
The collaboration involved language differences, cultural nuances, and changing travel plans, all of which increased complexity and required more proactive, empathetic, and structured communication.
3. Solution by MaiBaoPak (MBP)
3.1 Rebuilding trust through fast, multi-channel communication
To address Soyad’s concerns about service speed, MBP implemented a multi-language, multi-format communication strategy using English and Russian, supported by video calls, short videos, images, and real-time messaging. Every inquiry was addressed promptly and clearly, helping the client feel supported and valued throughout the process.
3.2 Reducing uncertainty with physical samples and professional guidance
For complex, high-end packaging, MBP prepared tailored physical samples in advance. We also provided structural optimization, material recommendations, and process validation. These tangible references, combined with real-world case examples, enabled Soyad to better visualize the final outcome and gain confidence in the quality.
3.3 Reframing the conversation from price to long-term value
Rather than engaging in price competition, MBP focused on explaining the long-term value delivered through consistent color management, reliable quality control, responsive service, and one-stop packaging solutions. This shifted the discussion from short-term unit costs to long-term brand value and operational efficiency.
3.4 Delivering on promises through on-site visits and team collaboration
MBP encouraged Soyad to visit the factory and carefully planned the visit in advance, including sample preparation, meeting agendas, and logistics support. During the visit, the sales, design, pricing, and quality teams worked together in real time to review samples, answer questions, and adjust designs on the spot—demonstrating both capability and commitment.

Through a well-organized factory visit, coordinated team involvement, and on-the-spot problem solving, MBP provided a hands-on experience that gave Soyad confidence in the company’s professionalism, systems, and reliability.
