What fantastapack does

Fantastapack is a web-to-pack e-commerce platform that lets businesses design and order full-color custom corrugated packaging, labels, and retail displays online with no minimum order quantity, including single-unit orders. The company operates as a digital-first division of The BoxMaker, Inc., itself owned by packaging conglomerate SupplyOne, Inc., and runs all production in-house across two US manufacturing facilities located in Kent, Washington and Lowell, Arkansas, using HP PageWide C500 and HP Scitex HDR wide-format digital corrugated presses with UL ECOLOGO2 and Greenguard Gold certified water-based inks. The proprietary web-to-pack platform integrates an online Art Studio editor, automated dieline generation, and production scheduling to convert artwork uploads into finished custom packaging in 3-5 business days for samples and 10-15 business days for full production runs, with rush options on select SKUs.

The product catalog spans more than 40 SKUs covering mailers (Roll End Front Tuck, Econo Roll End Front Tuck, Roll End Tuck Top), retail boxes (Straight Tuck End, Reverse Tuck End, Shoe Box), shipping containers (Regular Slotted Container, One Piece Folder, Five Panel Folder, Full Overlap), inserts and dividers, food and beverage carriers (pizza boxes, multi-bottle wine and craft beer carriers, six-pack carriers), retail counter displays, F-Flute boxes, and four shapes of custom BOPP labels. Material options include PurePrint Premium, Matte, Kraft, and Standard White variants suited to food-safe applications.

Revenue is generated primarily through one-time pay-as-you-go unit sales via the fantastapack.com Shopify storefront, supplemented by a B2B Reseller Program for creative agencies and promotional companies (with API, My Print Valet, and direct ordering plus blind-shipping) and by parent The BoxMaker's enterprise field-sales channel that requires a $1,500 minimum order value. Customer concentration spans a Fortune 500 logo portfolio (Google, Netflix, Zappos, HP, Snapchat, Valve, Toyota, Facebook) used largely for credibility alongside a high-volume SMB long tail serving e-commerce brands, subscription box operators, food and beverage producers, and small-business entrepreneurs in the United States and Canada.

Direct peers

• EcoEnclose: EcoEnclose is a direct competitor focused on sustainable custom shipping boxes, mailers, and packaging supplies with online ordering; it overlaps with Fantastapack on corrugated mailers and the eco-conscious SMB buyer.
• PakFactory: PakFactory offers custom printed boxes, retail packaging, and labels through an online platform with low minimums, comparable in scope, customer base, and self-serve digital workflow to Fantastapack.
• Printex Packaging: Printex Packaging produces custom printed boxes, mailers, and retail displays, including via digital print; competes directly with Fantastapack in custom corrugated for retail, subscription, and DTC use cases.
• Noissue: Noissue is a direct competitor providing custom-printed sustainable packaging (mailers, boxes, tissue paper, stickers) with low minimum orders, competing head-to-head with Fantastapack in the eco-friendly DTC and small business packaging segment.
• Packlane: Packlane is a direct online competitor offering custom printed boxes, mailers, and inserts with no minimum order quantities and a similar web-to-pack self-serve model, targeting the same SMB and DTC e-commerce customer base as Fantastapack.
• Arka: Arka (formerly PackagingBee) is a direct online competitor offering custom boxes, mailers, and packaging with no minimums, similar self-serve ordering flow, and comparable target customers in DTC, subscription boxes, and SMBs.

Broad incumbents

• Atlantic Packaging: Atlantic Packaging is a larger traditional packaging manufacturer and distributor offering custom corrugated boxes, retail displays, and protective packaging; competes broadly with Fantastapack across enterprise accounts but lacks the same self-serve SMB focus.
• SupplyOne (parent group): SupplyOne is the parent conglomerate of Fantastapack via The BoxMaker; it is a national packaging distributor and converter providing context on the broader corporate umbrella and the cross-sell environment in which Fantastapack operates.
• The BoxMaker: The BoxMaker is Fantastapack's direct parent and a custom packaging manufacturer with 35-40 years of experience; while related rather than competing, it shares the same product space (custom corrugated, retail boxes) and serves enterprise customers that Fantastapack upmarkets into.

Emerging players

• Sticker Mule: Sticker Mule is an online print-on-demand platform best known for custom stickers and labels; it overlaps with Fantastapack's label product line and shares the self-serve e-commerce DNA and SMB/DTC audience, though packaging is not its primary focus.
