I believe our shared philosophies of providing outstanding customer service and bringing exceptional value to our customers align well between our two companies."

Pantero and Inspired Packaging Solutions are both located in the Detroit area and both focused on meeting the needs of the warehouse, logistics, packaging and distribution industry. Pantero currently offers a wide range of packaging, warehouse and janitorial supplies and equipment. Their comprehensive catalog, commitment to customer service, and same-day/next-day delivery service have earned a strong following in the southeastern Michigan area.
