Otago Packaging Supplies REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT “Locally Owned and Operated” is Otago Packaging Supplies’ motto, and for 33 years the business it has been employing local people, putting money back into the local economy and supporting local businesses with good products, at fair prices and delivered on time. Owner Craig Ballantyne said the Dunedin-based business began in the early 1990s. “Three of us started the business back in 1992 after working for a large corporate and decided the corporate world was not for us. We believed, and have proven, that we could successfully gain a good sustainable share of the market.” Based in South Dunedin, the company has a wide customer base supplying to Otago, Central Otago, South Otago, Southland, North Otago and South Canterbury. The company’s account managers travel regularly throughout these regions. The great range and personal service keeps customers coming back time-and-time again, Craig says. “We’re very proud to be working with many clients that have been with us this entire journey.” “Our people are key. Our account managers and customer service team have many years of experience and can recommend the best solution for your requirements. “This filters right through the team as all staff have experience in multiple roles which helps to cover gaps when staff are on leave. “This “can do” attitude is what makes the crew at OPS stand out from a client service perspective. All of our team are long serving, good people who relish a challenge. “Our other strength would have to be our long standing relationships with our suppliers. This is further strengthened by our membership with our national buying group Paklink. “ As Paklink members, we offer local personalised service backed by an extensive network of packaging manufacturers and suppliers. “This prominent national distribution network provides collective buying power. Through strength in numbers, Paklink is a pivotal national distribution network, redefining the landscape of the New Zealand packaging industry.” From cartons to tape, paper bags to paper cups, custom printed bags, cups or serviettes, Otago Packaging Supplies have their clients covered in all sectors, including industrial and manufacturing to retail and hospitality. “The biggest changes in packaging in recent years have been an increased awareness of environmentally friendlier products and the reduction in retail carry bag sales, so the company is mindful where possible to provide environmentally-friendly options,” Craig says. The company also supplies industrial chemicals and paper hygiene products. “We sell a large range of paper hygiene products and provide the appropriate dispensers/systems that can be provided ‘Free on Loan’. We also have a wide range of industrial chemicals suitable for a wide range of industries.” Otago Packaging Supplies offers free delivery throughout the greater Dunedin region. “As our customer, you will enjoy prompt, friendly delivery. “If you’re based in the greater Dunedin region, your products will be delivered free. “As we have our own delivery vehicles, a same-day delivery service can be provided.” The company boasts a large warehouse that holds plenty of stock, so if there is uncertainty which products will best suit workplace requirements, a visit to the showroom at 301 Hillside Road, South Dunedin, is encouraged. “Our helpful staff are here to welcome you Monday through Friday, from 8am until 5pm.” It is easy to set up an account with a regular core cycle every four weeks and invoice monthly. “Our account managers and customer service team have many years of experience and can recommend the best solution…” POLYCELLEST. ‘92 if it’s worth protecting, it’s worth Polycell...
