Custom Packaging
in El Paso
El Paso and Ciudad Juárez form one of the largest cross-border manufacturing regions in North America, with factories assembling electronics, auto parts and medical devices for US markets. Packaging here often has to move components across the border and protect finished goods on their way north.

Packaging for El Paso businesses
The city's bilingual population and food culture also shape consumer packaging: many El Paso brands print in English and Spanish, and Texas cottage food rules apply to home bakers and tamale makers.
El Paso shoppers and businesses move between the US and Mexico every day, and many local food brands, such as salsa, tortilla and pastry makers, sell to both markets. Packaging that reads clearly in both English and Spanish and travels well in a hot climate covers most needs.
Cross-border manufacturing
Manufacturers and suppliers need corrugated cartons and inserts for components, and retail boxes for finished goods.
Food and home kitchens
Restaurants, bakeries and tamale makers need takeout boxes, bakery boxes and labels.
Retail and e-commerce
Retailers and online sellers need bilingual retail boxes and mailers.
Packaging rules to know in El Paso
No local bag bans in Texas
In 2018 the Texas Supreme Court held that Laredo's bag ban was preempted by the Texas Solid Waste Disposal Act, so Texas cities cannot ban checkout bags. Bag choice is a branding and cost decision rather than a legal one.

Home-based food businesses in Texas must label products with the operation's name, product name, major allergens and a statement that the food was made in a home kitchen not inspected by a health department (or a DSHS registration number in place of a home address). Check the current wording before printing.
