The company is currently accepting orders, which will be fulfilled by one of its six US locations until the Vancouver facility opens later this year.

ePac Vancouver managing partner George Boustani said: “I’m excited to bring ePac’s unique business model to Vancouver. Small and medium-sized businesses, in particular, will benefit from having a local supplier to work with as an option to traditional and overseas packaging suppliers.

“With our digital platform, ePac customers launch new products faster, run more promotions, and order to demand, thereby reducing inventory and obsolescence.”

Established in 2016, the company uses Indigo 20000 digital printing technology from Hewlett Packard to fulfil its customers’ orders.
