Many overseas Pakistanis run a brand from London, Toronto or Dubai while the product is made in Lahore, Sialkot or Karachi. The hardest part is usually not the product — it is getting consistent, professional packaging without being there in person.

Start small, then reorder

prints.com.pk starts at 50 pieces on every product (100 for mailer boxes), so a first launch does not need a large commitment. Test your label design with a short run, fix anything you notice, then reorder once you know what sells. Approved files, Pantone references and material specs are kept on file so reorders match.

What a first order usually includes

  • Product labels for jars, bottles or tubes — waterproof vinyl, clear or paper
  • Thank-you or care cards that go in every parcel
  • A mailer or gift box, from 100 pieces for mailer boxes
  • Seal stickers for a finished, tamper-evident look

How ordering works from abroad

  • Message us on WhatsApp with the product, quantity and delivery city or country.
  • Receive a quote in PKR with an approximate total in your currency.
  • Approve a digital proof online, usually within 24–48 hours.
  • Pay from abroad by international bank transfer (including transfers sent through Wise or Remitly), or ask a family member in Pakistan to pay by JazzCash, bank transfer, NayaPay or SadaPay.
  • See photos of your finished order before dispatch.

Common mistakes

  • Sending RGB files instead of CMYK, which shifts colours on press.
  • Skipping the 3 mm bleed, so trimmed edges show a white sliver.
  • Approving a proof without re-reading every word — typos in an approved proof are not covered by the Print Guarantee.
