Are we right for you?

Two questions before
we run your forecast.

We're built for planners — brands ordering 5,000+ units with 9–10 weeks of runway. If that's not you, we'll point you somewhere better and stop wasting your time.

Question 01

When do you need stock?

Question 02

What did you spend on packaging last year?

§01 — The Maths of Scale

At 100,000 mailers a month, 10p is £120,000.

When you ship at scale, the unit price stops being a unit price. It becomes a six-figure line item that quietly defines what your business can afford to do next quarter.

A 10p difference per mailer at 100,000 units a month is £120,000 a year — every year — gone before it ever touches your P&L. That’s a senior hire. A new product launch. A full performance-marketing quarter. Most brands never see that money because the maths stays buried in a recurring monthly invoice that nobody re-tenders.

Traditional UK mailer suppliers built their pricing for a market that didn’t have an alternative. They charge sustainability as a premium. They charge volume as a courtesy, not a discount. They charge flexibility as a special request. None of that has to be true for the brand you’re building today.

§02 — Sustainable ≠ Expensive

Sustainability used to be a premium. Not anymore.

For years, growing brands accepted a quiet trade-off: do the right thing for the planet, or do the right thing for your margin. Pick one. Sustainable packaging carried a 20–35% surcharge, and finance teams rightly questioned every reorder.

That trade-off is gone. Brands moving to PackageHub get 100% recyclable mailers at 40–50% below what they were paying for the non-sustainable equivalent. The upgrade isn’t the cost — the upgrade is the saving.

This isn't a client testimonial. This is our own brand. We built PackageHubSupply because of what we discovered running Zamy Skincare. These are our actual numbers.

"We were spending £38,950 every time we needed to restock both product lines. That same order now costs £17,500 — and we receive 2,000 extra units on top. In year one we saved enough to fund our next product launch without raising a single pound of external capital. PackageHubSupply is the supply chain we wish had existed when we started Zamy. Now it does."
