Sonderen Packaging Co. Revenue and Competitors

Mission Statement: Sonderen Packaging is dedicated to being the very best folding carton supplier in quality, service and value to our customers. This goal is achieved by providing modern equipment, a good work environment, and utilizing the skills and knowledge of our greatest asset, our people. Dedication to building trust in the relationships with our customers and our employees is a value we strive for. Sonderen Packaging is in the business of manufacturing high quality, custom folding cartons. Founded in 1963 by Al and Mary Sonderen, the company has been successful as a family owned business for over 40 years. This tradition will continue as a third generation prepares to lead the company into the future. Since opening in 1963, Sonderen has grown from 8 employees working in a 2,000 square foot basement shop, to 92 employees and an 85,000 square foot state-of-the-art facility. Sonderen's success can be attributed to the company's reputation for high quality manufacturing, customer service second to none and for building lasting relationships with customers, employees and suppliers. These relationships proved invaluable during a few recent challenges faced by the company. In 1998, a massive fire nearly destroyed the entire Sonderen operation. With the help of a dedicated workforce, loyal customers, trusting suppliers and a few friendly competitors, we were able to quickly rebuild the plant. Remarkably enough, we were also able to retain 100% of our customers and avoid laying off a single employee. In 2004, Sonderen acquired another folding carton company and to the credit of our employees and their exceptional efforts, we were able to retain 95% of their existing customers. Sonderen has assembled a team of professionals that recognize the importance of understanding our customers packaging needs. We work hard at building a professional relationship as well as a personal connection with all of our customers. We believe this helps us better understand their business and helps us to respond to their unique packaging needs. We pride ourselves in these relationships; an attribute that we feel separates us from the competition.
