With the holiday season wrapping up, shoppers are still hitting stores – aiming to get the best deal available. Likewise, finding the best deal in packaging and processing equipment can be a game played in overtime, when you don’t have a second to spare, especially when considering all expenses incurred in finding the right machine for your project.
Equipment buyers don’t always consider the extra expenses that go into purchasing machinery. Getting individual machines or complete packaging lines late, without replacement parts / support staff, or getting the wrong machine altogether can affect:
- Market share
- Productivity
- Downtime Costs
- Net Revenue
Equipment buyers must clearly understand and equate value, not price, to the operation. Getting the proper machine, quickly, and fully supported will mean more to the bottom line than “saving” on the initial price of the unsupported, incorrect, or machine that arrives late.
