Background
Our client, a paper and packaging company based in the United States, specializes in producing high-quality paper products and packaging materials for various industries. Their target market consists of manufacturing, retail, and e-commerce businesses looking for environmentally friendly and sustainable packaging solutions. Despite having a strong product offering and an established customer base, the company faced difficulties scaling its operations and expanding into new markets.
