As a small workshop in Mexico, we have long been looking for a quality packaging supplier that can meet both our customization and bulk ordering needs. After visiting several local brands in person, we found that while they only offered simple designs, their prices were quite high. Later we turned our search online, where we discovered the KALI brand that provides various custom magnetic closure boxes at affordable prices.
We first paid visits to two well-known local packaging companies. While the quality of their products was undeniable, customization was difficult and prices did not fit our budget. For example, their basic stock box design would cost nearly a month's worth of our profits per case. On top of that, customizing the shape or functions would require extra fees, and the lead time was around a month - too much pressure for us.
Afterwards, we searched online via Google, entering "custom magnetic box". That's how we discovered KALI. To our surprise, KALI had a rich selection of box styles, from minimalist designs to beautifully decorated custom edges (https://www.luxury-paper-box.com/magnetic-box/). They also offered 30 different materials and closure methods to choose from. Most importantly, their prices were extremely affordable - only half the cost of local brands for stock designs, and custom work took just two weeks.
We compared KALI against the local brands:
| Item | Local Brand A | Local Brand B | KALI |
|---|---|---|---|
| Stock box cost per case | $150 | $120 | $80 |
| Customization difficulty | Difficult | Slightly difficult | Easy |
| Custom lead time | 4 weeks | 3 weeks | 2 weeks |
| Material options | 5 types | 8 types | 30 types |
| Style options | Minimal | Minimal | Rich |
Additionally, we inquired KALI about several concerns:
How can we customize styles and shapes?
How is shipping calculated? Do they provide international delivery?
Is customization possible for small orders?
KALI provided detailed responses that put us at ease, and we confidently chose them as our long-term supplier. Not only are their prices affordable, but their service is thorough. They are truly the ideal magnetic closure packaging partner for our workshop. Next year we plan to deeply cooperate with KALI, believing they can maximize our competitiveness.
