The bulk of the packaging sold to cannabis companies online actually comes from China, India and other smaller Southeast Asian countries, where trading companies buy products from these countries and sell them to cannabis companies at even multiples of the price.

To continue selling cannabis products in the U.S., cannabis companies need to acquire a North American supplier of cannabis packaging and labels. Then you will be tricked into getting packages that are several times the price in China.
