Melbourne is arguably Australia’s design capital, with a dense cluster of packaging and branding studios across FMCG, drinks, beauty and retail. If your product is heading for the shelf, you have a lot of local craft to choose from.
The depth of talent in Melbourne means you can usually find a studio with direct experience in your exact category. That track record — not the suburb — is what protects your launch: the right team knows the regulatory traps, the print realities and what makes a pack get picked up.
Shortlist two or three Melbourne studios below, brief them the same way, and compare. Not sure where your current pack stands? Start with an independent Packaging Performance Review.
