Smith Packaging

We redesigned the website of a wholesale packaging supplier in Halsey, Oregon, on a custom WordPress theme, with a product catalog and a pricing request form.

From the Willamette Valley, packaging for farms, mills, and producers.

From Halsey, in Oregon’s Willamette Valley, Smith Packaging supplies wholesale packaging to farms, mills, and producers, throughout the Pacific Northwest and across the United States. They are part of Smith Seed Services, an agricultural company working in seed and forage, and their roots are in that farming community. Their catalog runs from bulk totes and woven or paper bags to stretch film and packing supplies, and they print customers’ own brands onto the bags. They stock standard products and also supply custom ones built to a customer’s requirements.

02 — The Solution

What we built together.

01

Website Design

When Smith Packaging came to us, they needed a refreshed design to replace the dated look of their previous site, so we redesigned and rebuilt their website on a custom WordPress theme, to show the farms, mills, and producers they supply what Smith Packaging carries. Their customers get a price by requesting a quote, so we built the site around that request. A buyer can open any product and read through its uses and specifications, and from there move on to a pricing request form that asks what they are packaging and turns spam away. We built the groundwork for search into the theme itself, so Google can tell who Smith Packaging is and what each product page offers. Along the way, we worked closely with their team to learn the business and how they wanted to present it to their customers.

02

Website Hosting & Maintenance

Smith Packaging hosts their website with us, and we maintain it for them. We handle the WordPress and plugin updates, take a backup of it each month, and keep an eye on it around the clock, and when a question comes up, their team can call or email Josh or David. That makes the website one less thing for their team to think about.

03 — The Work

Find the right packaging, then ask for a price.
