      Product Marketing Review from Andrew Kuhns

      We needed packaging design experts who could provide primary display panel concepts that would work for over 2K skus. They took are most common and a few unique PDP layouts and developed a design system that aligned with our brand standards with a modern approach. We are now implementing their design across all of our products. Great partners!

      We needed an update to our full [lineup] for Hillshire Farm, [a] national brand that participates in several categories. PKG provided a great range of designs that were on target.

      Design Services Review from Solyman Najimi

      We worked with the folks at SmashBrand in 2025 for logo and artwork updates for our top product. They were able to take an analytical approach and output--through much testing and a thorough revision process--superior graphics and concepts for our product packaging and overall company branding. We have modernized and streamlined our look and feel with the help of SmashBrand. Early feedback has been positive. We hope the long-term impact will be great.

      Brand Strategy Review from Rob Johnson

      I’ve worked with dozens of design and strategy agencies throughout my career and SmashBrand’s approach is completely unique. They take a quantitative approach to packaging that aligns the most important purchase drivers with the consumer target, and designs around those. They have absolutely transformed our business and are always my first call when I have brand strategy needs.

      We had an outstanding experience working with this packaging company from start to finish. The entire process was smooth, organized, and exceeded our expectations at every stage.From the initial budgeting phase, their team was transparent, responsive, and helped us find the best solution within our target price range. Their design support was especially impressive. They took the time to understand our vision, provided helpful recommendations, and ensured every detail of the box reflected our brand perfectly.Production and delivery were completed exactly as promised, with excellent communication throughout. The pricing was very fair for the level of service and quality provided.Most importantly, the final product exceeded our expectations. The box quality is excellent, durable, and beautifully finished. We absolutely love the final box design. It looks professional, premium, and elevates the presentation of our product.We highly recommend this company to anyone looking for high quality packaging, reliable service, and a team that truly cares about delivering exceptional results.

      I had a vision in mind for the packaging that I wanted for my business. We created the design but didn’t know if what we wanted was possible. I worked with Marcus for my first order of boxes and the experience from beginning to end was flawless. Marcus was extremely patient with us as we explored the different box styles, paper weights and printing options. When we finally decided on the details we were amazed at how quick the order was printed and delivered!! We were so impressed that we are fast tracking 2 more box designs.
