Production Artist

About The Company

Located in Providence, Rhode Island, Contempo Packaging has a 40+ year history producing packaging for the top brands and retailers in the world of fashion. In 2017, we brought that expertise to the cannabis industry with the mission to create beautiful, child resistant, and sustainable packaging for the top emerging brands in the rapidly growing cannabis industry. Today, Contempo Specialty Packaging is the leading producer of beautiful and sustainable packaging in the cannabis industry.

Our product offering is second to none and we are able to impress just about every brand that we speak to whether in fashion, cannabis, or other markets with our innovative, cutting edge, and often highly sustainable packaging options. One such example of our sustainable packaging is boxes and labels made from 100% hemp fiber, which is a future where zero trees need to be cut down to make paper packaging!
