Summary
Founded in 2018, Green Bell Packaging is a plastic-free solution provider, offering environmentally safe and affordable packaging options. The company prides themselves on contributing to the wellbeing of the planet, offering a fresh sustainable approach to packaging. The product range includes paper bags, jute bags, biobags, bio mailing bags designed for business and consumer use, all eco-friendly and home compostable which has attracted interest from some major brands. This has required increased inventories as well as finance for marketing support that River Capital has provided via NPIF.
Testimonial
It’s a really exciting time for us as a business. The company is expanding rapidly and in the last 12 months we have experienced a growth in sales. After introducing the first completely plant-based mailing bag to the UK market during lockdown in 2020, we have enjoyed further success with our most innovative product to date, the BioBag. Boasting an impressive client list across several sectors including hospitality, retail, e-commerce and food & drink to name a few, the firm has worked with some of the UK’s largest high street retailers and wholesalers.
