Great Little Box Company has big dreams

Great Little Box Company is a 32-year-old packaging supplier with aspirations in line with its name. It is aiming to be ‘great’, with modern technologies and a one-stop-shop service approach for its customer’s packaging needs, while at the same time remaining loyal to its established base of small-and medium-sized customers.

The name Great Little Box Company can be traced back to the roots of the company, when Robert Meggy took control of a bankrupt business specializing in corrugated boxes.

Already called Great Little Box Company, the decision was taken to carry this corporate identity forward in order to maximize existing advertising commitments.

Over the next two decades this paid off, with the company growing rapidly. In the years to 1996 it moved to larger premises in Richmond four times and opened a branch in Victoria, then in 1996 it moved to a 140,000 sq ft location in Vancouver, and in 1998 it opened branches in Kelowna and Everett, Washington.
