THE COMPANY

Trinity Packaging Supply is the first company to leverage proprietary software to connect over 300 distribution and manufacturing centers across North America to provide businesses with packaging’s largest catalog (over 80,000 custom and stock packaging supplies) — offered at low prices with next-day delivery.

Since 2010, Trinity has been the wholesale source of pallets and packaging supplies for manufacturers, retailers, and logistics companies across North America. We have a mindset of innovation, harnessing the power of state-of-the-art technology and our growing network of manufacturing and distribution partnerships to change how businesses think about packaging supplies.

After sustained hyper-growth, doubling revenue every two years, we are scaling our team and applying our dropship expertise to a new e-commerce platform. Similar to how Airbnb changed hospitality and Uber changed transportation, this will change the packaging industry forever.
