A French food packaging distributor reached out to us. They needed a reliable supply of aluminum foil containers for their growing network of restaurants, bakeries, and meal prep services across France.
Their previous supplier had issues:
Inconsistent quality — containers varied in thickness from batch to batch
Long lead times — frequent delays of 2–3 weeks beyond promised dates
Lid compatibility problems — lids from one batch didn't fit containers from another
High minimum order quantities — forced to buy thousands of units they didn't need
They needed a better partner. They found us.
At Henan Mingtan Import and Export Trading Co., Ltd. , we provided a tailored solution:
Step 1 — Sample approval
We sent a sample pack covering their requested sizes. The client tested quality, lid fit, and oven performance. Approval came within one week.
Step 2 — Mixed order assembly
The order included six different container sizes — from small portion cups to large catering trays. We consolidated everything into one 20ft container. One supplier, one shipment, one invoice.
Step 3 — Loading and departure
Containers were carefully packed to prevent damage during the long ocean voyage. The shipment departed from Shanghai port on schedule.
Step 4 — Ocean transit (32 days)
Throughout the journey, we provided regular tracking updates. The vessel sailed via the Suez Canal, following the standard route to Le Havre.
Step 5 — Customs clearance and delivery
Upon arrival at Le Havre, the client's customs broker cleared the shipment. Inland delivery to their warehouse in the Paris region was completed within two days.
What the client received:
✅ Consistent quality — every container met specifications
✅ Perfect lid fit — across all six sizes
✅ On-time delivery — within the promised 35-day window
✅ Competitive pricing — no hidden fees or surprises
✅ One-stop convenience — no juggling multiple suppliers
What they said:
"Working with Henan Mingtan has been a game-changer. The quality is consistent, the lids actually fit, and we finally have a supplier who understands our needs. We're already planning our next order."
