Graphic Design Review from Bill Buckley
Our company is a small one that aspires to grow much bigger. The work that Pemberton & Whitefoord has done gives us the presence of a well-established company and the design of our labels and presentation of our bottles are often complimented Bill Buckley - Owner
Branding Review from Rania Kthiri
Working with P&W is a real blessing. They are competent people, ultra creative and very reactive. We have never been disappointed working with them, whether for the design of our website, the creation of a new range of products, B to B communication or even the creation/design of corporate reports. They are efficient, they respect the deadlines (which is a rare commodity these days) and above all comply with our slightest wishes (Knowing that our preferences can change along the way, evolve over the course of projects, etc.). I highly recommend!
Julia Sant's Review Sourced from Google
We have being working with P&W for a number of years. Having worked with deign agencies before in the number of countries, I found their work to be outstanding, The design solutions for both packaging, POS and advertisement that they offer are second to none. I would happily recommend P&W to any company - large or small and they would not disappoint. Julia Sant, Export - Healthy Food Brands LTD

Package Design Review from Raquell (Gama e) Silva
We worked with Reflective Media Inc. on a label compliance and branding redesign project to align our packaging with Canadian regulations. Fernanda was knowledgeable and clearly experienced, showing a strong understanding of compliance requirements. They delivered items on time, were responsive to our needs, and managed the project in an organized, professional way.
Package Design Review from Danika Charity
We are a brand-new start-up preparing to bring our very first food and beverage product to the US market. From the moment I connected with Fernanda on a CPG-focused Slack group she has been a wealth of knowledge and an incredible resource. We were looking for guidance around claims and packaging design and she conducted a Graphic Compliance Audit for us. She is extremely knowledgeable and her notes and suggestions were very helpful. We look forward to working with her again in the future.

Graphic Design Review from Kimberly Cruickshanks
I'm a designer myself and started my brand in 2016, so I have a pretty high bar when it comes to design. Ive worked with other freelancers, and Deka genuinely blew me away. They delivered an incredibly premium image stack and A+ Content for a new product launch. Honestly, I wasn't even that excited about the product until I saw what they created. The work feels fresh, contemporary, and elevated. It completely changed how I see the product entering the market. What impressed me most was how little direction I had to give. They have the creative taste and judgment to really push the work forward. Every detail, from typography and color to composition and even the AI photography, felt intentional and polished. The photography in particular looked like a high-end Photoshop shoot, not generic AI imagery. As a designer, I'm hard to impress, and Deka absolutely nailed it. I'd happily work with them again.
Graphic Design Review from Paven Hayer
Deka Agency excels in professionalism and delivers high-quality work. Their keen attention to detail and exceptional listening skills result in amazing images tailored perfectly to our vision. Highly recommended!
Design Services Review from Sam Lepak
From start to finish, Deka Agency has absolutely crushed the projects we've sent them - overdelivering on timing, scope, and communication! We especially like their willingness to integrate into our workflows in Slack and Figma. Additionally, they've been very proactive in asking for feedback, plus having the desire to communicate about the results of the project so they can continuously improve. What sets them apart is their creativeness ability. The time to understand the full scope of the project, perform detailed industry research to create assets that are magnitudes better than competition. After many successful projects together - they earn the highest of our recommendation.

Branding Review from Emilio Koumis
Daniel and Noramble were one of the first people I reached out to do my branding for Yeubo after seeing their website, and honestly, it It was like finding a hidden gem. Daniel and Noramble are a prime example of promising you great work but then massively overdelivering, which is something every brand loves when working with agencies. There isn't a single person or agency that I would ever go back to for branding, hence why I've also given them about a thousand clients, haha.
Branding Review from Robin van Rooij
We initially approached Noramble for a full 360° branding project, but engaged them earlier for an interim brand 0.5 phase to create presentable packaging and point-of-sale materials for our pilot. Having previously worked with two designers without achieving the result we needed, we brought No Ramble in with relatively limited additional briefing. They completely overdelivered. The work was not only creatively strong, but strategically well thought through, with several clear and considered directions presented. I am extremely happy with what they delivered, as well as their flexibility and ability to quickly understand the bigger picture. It has made us even more excited to work with them on the full evolution of the brand after the pilot.

They helped us figure out how to position ourselves better in the market and gave us helpful suggestions that made a real difference. The brand identity they created for us looks amazing and truly reflects who we are. They also made sure we had proper brand guidelines so we can stay consistent across everything we do. They helped us organize our product range in a way that’s easy for our customers to understand, and the website they designed is clean, modern, and easy to use. It’s made a big improvement in how we show up online. The whole team was professional, easy to work with, and always delivered on time.

Branding Review from Jazmin Andrea Giraldo
This review is provided to reflect a factual experience based on documented communications and delivered materials throughout the project. The engagement was contractually expected to be completed within approximately five months. However, the actual duration extended to nearly two years, representing a substantial deviation from the agreed timeline. From a structural perspective, the Brand Style Guidelines were not delivered in a complete or usable form. Essential elements, such as a defined Color System, were missing, resulting in the absence of a coherent visual framework from the outset. Despite this, subsequent deliverables were developed, which led to inconsistencies across the project. Several files provided contained technical errors and were not suitable for professional or commercial use. The requested corrections were not additional services, but necessary adjustments to meet minimum professional standards. Additionally, key agreed deliverables were not provided, including 3D mockups, video production and the website. During the course of the project, certain deliverables required waiting periods of up to one month, yet were still delivered with errors, indicating deficiencies in both project management and quality control processes. In contrast, comparable corrections and adjustments were completed independently within a matter of hours, highlighting a significant discrepancy in execution efficiency. A substantial portion of the total project fee (approximately 90%) was requested and paid before the initial phase had been properly completed. While certain isolated matters arose during the project and were resolved within a short timeframe, these do not reasonably account for the overall duration of nearly two years. Following the conclusion of the project, independent third-party designers reviewed the materials and identified deficiencies requiring correction, completion and partial re-execution.

Packaging design follows a structured process that moves from strategy to production-ready files. The goal is to create packaging that sells the product and works in manufacturing without errors.
A packaging design agency starts by understanding your product, target customer, price point, and competitors. This defines how the packaging should look and what it must communicate.
The strategy stage includes:
Without this step, the design may look good but fail commercially.
Designers create multiple visual directions to explore different ideas before choosing one.
Concept development usually includes:
You review concepts and select one for refinement.
If the packaging shape is customized, a packaging design company creates the structural template that production will use.
The structural design phase defines:
This ensures the packaging works with your manufacturer.
The agency produces physical samples, so you can test the packaging before mass production.
The prototyping and testing phase helps verify:
Changes happen here before final approval.
Once approved, the agency prepares technical files for manufacturing.
In this phase, they deliver to manufacturers:
Manufacturers use these files to produce your packaging at a scale.
Many packaging design companies stay involved during printing to prevent errors.
They may:
Their involvement in this phase protects quality and prevents costly mistakes.
Custom packaging design companies handle both the visual design and the technical preparation needed for manufacturing. They ensure your packaging attracts buyers, protects the product, and works in real production.
Work begins by defining how the product should compete on the shelf and how packaging supports sales, positioning, and compliance. Decisions made here affect every downstream design and production step. A strong strategy prevents redesigns later.
Core activities include:
A clear strategic direction ensures packaging communicates the right value and appeals to the intended buyer.
Focus then shifts to creating the graphics customers see and interact with. Designers translate brand identity into packaging that attracts attention and communicates key information quickly.
Typical deliverables include:
Professional visual design improves perceived product value and increases purchase likelihood.
Physical structure determines how the packaging functions, protects the product, and runs on production lines. Agencies engineer layouts that manufacturers can produce reliably.
Technical work includes:
Accurate structural planning prevents manufacturing failures and product damage.
Physical samples allow teams to evaluate packaging before committing to full production. Testing reveals problems that digital files cannot show.
Prototyping services include:
Early testing reduces the risk of expensive production errors.
Manufacturers require highly precise technical files. Agencies prepare and verify these assets so that packaging prints correctly and meets technical standards.
Production preparation includes:
Proper preparation ensures packaging looks correct and moves smoothly into production.
Brands with multiple products need packaging that stays consistent while allowing variations. Packaging design companies build scalable systems that support growth.
System development includes:
Structured systems reduce future design costs and maintain brand consistency across product lines.
In 2026, packaging design plays a direct role in sales, pricing, and customer loyalty. It affects whether people notice your product, trust it, and choose it over competitors.
Key benefits that the best packaging design agency can provide are:
Packaging often determines whether a customer buys your product or ignores it. People use packaging to judge quality, value, and trust.
Packaging helps customers remember your product and recognize it later. Consistent and clear packaging builds trust over time.
Better packaging allows companies to charge higher prices because customers see the product as more valuable.
Sustainable packaging directly affects buying decisions and brand switching.
Packaging design affects shipping cost, storage, and logistics efficiency.
Packaging problems become expensive only after printing starts, when changes require reprints, production delays, or product recalls. Many agencies focus on visuals but lack technical and manufacturing depth. These red flags signal risk that can lead to operational and financial damage later.
Choosing the right packaging partner affects product launch speed, production cost, and shelf performance. Asking the right questions reveals whether the packaging design firm has the technical ability and process discipline required for your product.

Agencies can also reach out to DesignRush and must go through the verification process prior to being listed.
Yes. Top packaging design companies usually offer prototyping to test structure, materials, and visual design before mass production. This step prevents costly production errors and ensures the packaging works in real conditions.
Most agencies provide:
Prototyping confirms that the packaging protects the product, looks correct on the shelf, and meets supplier requirements before full production begins.
Packaging design usually costs $5,000 to $100,000+, depending on complexity, number of products, and partner type. Simple packaging is on the low end. Regulated, luxury, or multi–Stock Keeping Unit (SKU) packaging is on the high end.
Typical ranges based on DesignRush data:
Hourly rates:
Costs increase with custom structures, compliance requirements, premium materials, and multiple SKUs.
Yes. Packaging design projects often have costs that don’t show up in the initial quote. These hidden fees usually come from real-world production realities, not creative work.
Common extra costs:
These fees happen because packaging must work with production equipment, materials, and regulations. Always define the scope and ask for a production-ready cost estimate up front.
A packaging design project usually takes 4 to 8 weeks for simple packaging and 2 to 4+ months for complex launches. Timeline depends on the number of SKUs, revisions, and production requirements.
Typical timeline ranges:
Time increases due to:
Packaging is tied to manufacturing, so production steps often take longer than the design itself.
Yes. Packaging design firms regularly collaborate with manufacturers to ensure packaging is produced correctly and efficiently. Their collaboration prevents production errors, delays, and costly reprints.
Packaging design companies typically work with manufacturers to:
This collaboration ensures the final packaging works in real manufacturing conditions, not just on screen.
