The Beer Boutique Launches EnviroClip™,
the Innovative,
Convenient Multipack Solution

The Beer Boutique is an independently owned beer store in Winnipeg, Canada that strives to deliver convenient, quality products and excellent service. To enhance their customer service and create differentiation, the store offers a service that allows consumers to create custom six-packs by combining individual cans of different beverages.

The store wanted to replace their previous paperboard basket carrier with a new, innovative packaging solution that not only offered consumers an elevated experience but also supported the store’s sustainability goals by using less paperboard than the basket carrier.

The Beer Boutique partnered with us to design a paperboard packaging solution that prioritizes consumer convenience while
improving efficiency.
