They faced the challenge of providing value to fans on a limited budget. Anfield Shop wanted to maintain the value that fans received from the exclusive and custom limited-edition merchandise, making for a tight budget when it came to developing the packaging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, Anfield Shop wanted something to contribute towards the overall user experience and not only contain the merchandise. The box itself needed to help deliver a story of the items it contained within.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image cnvs-block-core-image-1584999919555\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pakfactory-blog-media.s3.ca-central-1.amazonaws.com\/blog1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/uncategorized\/2023_05_Anfield-Shop-pkg-2-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"The unboxed Anfield custom subscription box.\" class=\"wp-image-11561\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">photo: pakfactory<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote has-text-align-center is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>We found out from customers&#8217; feedback that people were holding onto the boxes and sharing their unboxing experience on social media, and overall enhancing our brand engagement even more!<\/p>\n<cite>alisha weiss, ceo<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading cnvs-block-core-heading-1584999919564\"><strong>The Solution<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The original box had a roll end tuck top structure, which had a high probability of compromising the interior integrity during delivery. With the help of Kristen, one of PakFactory&#8217;s Packaging Specialists, Anfield Shop was able to improve on their pre-existing subscription box. The solution from our specialist was to use a&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/pakfactory.com\/roll-end-front-tuck-with-dust-flaps.html\">Tab Lock Roll End<\/a>&nbsp;design, which provided a more protected package during shipping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anfield Shop also changes their box designs frequently to maintain customer engagement. Still, with PakFactory&#8217;s resources and printing capabilities, we were able to consistently deliver different box designs with low turnaround time while maintaining a high-quality.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image cnvs-block-core-image-1584999919575\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pakfactory-blog-media.s3.ca-central-1.amazonaws.com\/blog1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/uncategorized\/2023_05_Anfield-Shop-pkg-3-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"A head-on view of the unboxed Anfield custom subscription box.\" class=\"wp-image-11562\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">photo: pakfactory<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading cnvs-block-core-heading-1584999919579\"><strong>The Results<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Anfield Box continues to be an on-going project at PakFactory, continually discovering new ways to add value to the box. The subscription box is on its 8th release, and it has continued to be tweaked and improved each time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anfield Shop has been receiving fantastic feedback from customers and quickly realized that customers were holding onto the boxes as well. The box became a canvas to tell the story of its release.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote has-text-align-center is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Working with PakFactory is great because, in addition to the sort of traditional packaging you&#8217;d expect with a subscription box, PakFactory has so much experience in all types of packaging, which meant that we were not limited to anything.<\/p>\n<cite>alisha weiss, ceo<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Now eight years strong operating from an independent location just outside of Seattle, Washington, Anfield Shop has become the local favorite store of all things Liverpool FC.
