Family-Owned and Operated for Three Generations
In 1962, Fox Packaging got its humble start with used equipment and borrowed space in the back of a South Texas carrot shed providing Leno bags for bulk packing to local farmers. Now, 60 years later, things look a little different for us.
Fox Packaging is proud to be a pioneer in flexible packaging solutions for fresh produce growers and packers across the country. Today, we serve customers throughout North and South America and have expanded our offerings to include the bakery, firewood, and seafood industries.
While our customer base and product lines have evolved over the years, our family values remain at the heart of our business. Three generations of the Fox family are actively involved in daily operations, ensuring that we continue to deliver the exceptional customer service and product quality that defined us in the beginning.
We take great pride in addressing the needs of our customers with innovative and sustainable packaging solutions that protect products, extend shelf life, and align with shopper trends. Our strong customer relationships inspire us to consistently exceed expectations with premium service, thoughtful design, efficient production, and prompt delivery.
