๐จ๐ณ **Chinaโs Holiday Season Is Coming โ Is Your Packaging Supply Chain Ready?**
For many international food manufacturers, beverage companies and packaging distributors, the next few weeks are more than just holiday season. They are also an important time to check your **glass packaging supply chain**.
In China, the **Mid-Autumn Festival holiday is September 25โ27**, followed by the **National Day holiday from October 1โ7**.
So if you are sourcing **glass bottles, glass jars or other food packaging from China**, here are 5 things worth checking before the holidays:
โ
**1. Production Schedule**
Is your order already in production?
Has the production completion date been confirmed?
โ
**2. Quality Inspection**
When will QC / inspection take place โ before the holiday, during production, or after production resumes?
โ
**3. Packaging & Loading**
Are cartons, dividers, pallets and containers ready for shipment?
โ
**4. Shipping Schedule**
Have you checked vessel schedules, port operations and possible delays around the holiday period?
โ
**5. Repeat-Order Planning**
If you need packaging for Q4 or early 2027 production, waiting until after the holidays may leave you with fewer options.
Hereโs the part we think matters most:
A reliable **glass packaging supplier** should not only tell you:
โOur factory will reopen after the holiday.โ
They should also help you understand what happens **before, during and after the holiday**.
**Product โ Supplier โ Production โ QC โ Packaging โ Warehouse โ Shipment**
That is how we look at food glass packaging sourcing at **SHINING PACKAGING**.
With **20+ years of industry experience and a 2,000ใก warehouse**, we support food brands, beverage companies, condiment manufacturers, filling plants, importers and packaging distributors sourcing **glass bottles and glass jars from China and Southeast Asia**.
Because in packaging procurement, the lowest unit price is only one part of the equation.
**Supply reliability, quality control and delivery performance matter too.**
๐ฌ **What usually causes the biggest headache for you when sourcing packaging before a major holiday?**
**Production | QC | Shipping | Delivery**
