Waterville, Maine (December 14, 2016) - Maine Crisp Company, a specialty food business making gluten-free crackers, was awarded a $10,000 grant from the Fair Food Fund, a project with the Fair Food Network, to design their first box packaging. The Fair Food Network is a mission driven organization that assists and supports food-focused producers and entrepreneurial brands. This grant will allow Maine Crisp to take its packaging from a “homemade” version using readily available bags and printed labels, to professionally designed and printed boxes with appropriate labeling, bar codes, and a coherent branding for each flavor. Maine Crisp co-founder, Karen Getz, said, “We’re thrilled with the support of the Fair Food Network. As a startup, our resources are limited and this grant will help us present our crisps in a professional box, streamline our delivery process, and look great on the shelves. The timing and support couldn't be more welcome. We look forward to presenting the new packaging to retailers and distributors.”
Maine Crisp anticipates launching their new packaging by early summer and are eager for retailer and customer responses on their updated branding.
