Local sourcing · Packaging buyer’s guide
A productive sample review uses the finished product and the problems the next order needs to solve. Pacer serves packaging buyers from its Simi Valley location; arrange any in-person review with the team before visiting.
The short answer
Bring representative products, current packaging, artwork, and the application or packing specification. A useful local review should end with a record of what is approved and what still needs a sample, quote, or line trial. Arrange visits with Pacer in advance.
What to review before approving production
Bring representative containers, current packaging, artwork, and a short list of fit or appearance issues. Include your co-packer’s specification if another company will apply or pack the components. Leave the review with named next steps and a record of which samples or files are approved.

Discuss your next run with Pacer
Send your existing packaging, current artwork or a product sample, and the quantities needed for each design. Include the delivery ZIP code and required date so the discussion reflects the job you actually need. Confirm the proposed materials, available features, minimums, production timing, and any testing with Pacer before ordering.
