Why mockup packaging is key to success in food and product retailing

Why mockup packaging is key to success in food and product retailing

There’s no question, whether a start-up company or an established brand or designer, printed mockup packaging has become a key element of success in product launches and retail consumer sales. Development teams consisting of production, design, marketing and sales are consistently using prototypes to ensure their final packaging is ready hit the shelf successfully with maximum impact.

With pillow packs, flow-wraps, pouches lidding, sleeves and outer retail ready packaging being brought to life within short time frames - creating opportunities to review elements of design, branding and marketing pre launch. 

Given the total value invested in product development, using mockups during the development phase ensures the product has been checked by all stakeholders. From internal teams to prospective buyers and consumer panels, getting to touch, feel and see product before full production provides invaluable feedback.  In many cases this is preventing issues post launch, as the design and pack format has been optimized early on and potential issues ironed out.

 
 The top 10 benefits of using mockup flexible packaging

1. All finished pack formats can be mocked up, from flow wrap to pillow pack, quad seal bag to stand up pouch, flat bottom bags and more.

2. You can prepare for all eventualities in a product’s lifetime – it may begin life as a pouch and end up as a flow wrap; you can witness the full journey before even starting.

3. All materials catered for with single ply or laminates across a wide range of material structures and thicknesses.

6. Ability to check the sizing one final time before committing to a larger production run.

7. Great for sales pitches, presentations, internal marketing, photoshoots, TV adverts, trade shows and buyer samples.

8. Ability to personalise to help engage with others, be it a buyer or company.

9. Shelf presence testing – placing pack next to your competitors to ensure it stands out.
