[Case Study] How MaiBaoPak Helped a Leading Coffee Chain in North America Simplify Packaging Procurement and Elevate Its Brand
Background: A Coffee Chain Facing Procurement Challenges
Michael, the owner of an exclusive agency operating one of the world’s most recognized coffeehouse brands in North America, faced a critical challenge.
For years, his company relied on non-China suppliers for branded packaging. While products served their purpose, the experience was far from smooth.
Unstable lead times, inconsistent quality, and lack of unified design control forced Michael’s team to juggle multiple vendors for different categories.
For a brand built on consistency and premium customer experience, these issues weren’t just operational headaches — they impacted customer perception.
Michael set out to find a long-term partner in China who could provide:
- One-stop packaging solutions across multiple categories
- Reliable lead times with consistent quality control
- A unified brand identity with premium design execution
Over a 15-month journey filled with factory visits, trials, and negotiations, Michael nearly gave up — until he met the MaiBaoPak (MBP) team.
The Challenge
- Fragmented Supply Chain
Multiple vendors meant higher costs, complicated communication, and inconsistent results. Coordinating suppliers for to-go bags, paper cups, plastic cups, and coffee packaging bags consumed enormous time and resources.
- Unreliable Lead Times and Quality
Delays and inconsistent quality disrupted product launches and harmed the brand’s reputation.
- Design Consistency Across Packaging
The coffee chain’s identity demanded cohesive design execution across all formats. Suppliers struggled to maintain that standard.
Michael wasn’t just looking for another packaging manufacturer — he needed a strategic partner to elevate the brand and simplify procurement.
MBP’s Solution: Coffee Chain Packaging Simplified
1. One-Stop Custom Packaging
MBP provided a complete solution covering design consultation, prototyping, mass production, and global logistics. Michael could now centralize procurement with one trusted partner instead of managing multiple vendors.
2. Robust Supply Chain & Quality Assurance
With advanced production equipment and strict QC standards, MBP delivered consistent, high-quality packaging at scale. Streamlined operations across design, production, and delivery minimized lead times and reduced inventory risks.
3. Creative In-House Design Team
MBP’s design team translated the coffee chain’s brand DNA into cohesive packaging across multiple materials and formats. Fast, accurate prototypes gave Michael’s team confidence that final products would match initial designs.
In short, MBP didn’t just provide packaging — it delivered peace of mind.
Why Michael Chose MBP
- Customer-Centric Approach — MBP offered practical recommendations on design, efficiency, and cost control, treating Michael as a partner, not just a client.
- Proven F&B Expertise — With over a decade of experience in coffee chain packaging, MBP stood out as a credible and reliable partner in the U.S. market.
- Unified Brand Presentation — From concept to delivery, MBP ensured cohesive, premium identity across all packaging formats.
Michael later shared: “What impressed us most was MBP’s patience. They never pushed us — they guided us. That’s rare in this industry.”
The Results
- Lead Time: Reduced procurement cycle from 6 months → 3–4 months
- Cost Savings: Packaging costs cut by approx. 15% (to 85% of previous levels)
- Efficiency: One-stop sourcing simplified management across 4+ packaging categories
- Trust: MBP became Michael’s first stop on every China trip, highlighting long-term partnership value
Michael and his assistant, Icy, especially appreciated the professionalism of MBP’s business representative Jessie and CEO Tony, whose dedication turned discussions into a lasting partnership.
Looking Ahead
For MBP, Michael’s project is a reminder of our mission: helping global coffee chains and F&B brands grow stronger through packaging that unites creativity, efficiency, and reliability.
