Hello. My name is Dennis Salazar. In February 2007 my wife, Lenora, and I decided to start our own business (Salazar Packaging) utilizing the four decades of combined packaging experience we had. By late spring, it became obvious we were trying to create a new business in a depressed economy. We realized the only way we would survive is to do something different from the hundreds of local competitors.

After reviewing the packaging market to determine where our best opportunities might be, we opted to focus on e-commerce packaging both sustainable and branded (custom printed). You can understand how this positioned us perfectly for the great demand for eco-friendly packaging as well as custom branded products. Plain boxes and unprinted mailer envelopes were out, and we were in. After years of solid 10 to 20% growth, the recent pandemic suddenly helped our business grow over 40% in 2020 compared to 2019.
