Brand + Creative

Packaging Design

Packaging design is your brand’s first impression — a mini billboard and silent salesperson. An agency can create packaging that blends aesthetics with functionality, reinforcing your brand identity through how your product shows up online and on shelves.

Frequently asked questions.

What should be done before starting a packaging project?

An agency will require clear direction on deliverables, including how many products need unique packaging designs, dimensions, materials and more. It’s helpful to provide existing brand assets (logos, fonts, colors), current packaging samples, competitor references, and an idea of your target audience. Knowing your budget, manufacturing limitations, and launch timeline is also important to ensure the agency is prepared to deliver ready-to-use assets.

How long does the packaging design process usually take?

Depending on the complexity and scope of your needs, a full packaging design refresh can take between 6 and 16 weeks. Smaller updates (like refreshing an existing design for a new size or variation) can move faster than larger overhauls.

How do agencies handle packaging for multiple SKUs ?

The right agency will create a packaging system to ensure consistency across your product family — using flexible templates, cohesive visual themes, and hierarchy guidelines to distinguish different products while reinforcing your broader brand language and style.

Can an agency help us design retail compliant packaging?

Yes! Experienced packaging agencies are familiar with retailer-specific requirements, certifications, labeling regulations, and shelf-readiness standards. They can design packaging that aligns with digital eCommerce and physical retail environments.
