About Us

First came the basic brown box, the building block of our business. 

It all started with a simple brown box, five employees, and a big idea: find the very best solutions for our customers' packaging and shipping needs.

Since our founding in 1956 by Glenn Janowsky, Jamestown Container Companies has grown into a multi-plant, full-packaging supplier with an exceptional reputation for quick turnaround, unmatched service, and quality products. We still offer a basic brown box, along with just about everything else you can imagine: a complete line of wholesale packaging supplies; wholesale shipping supplies; full color, point-of-purchase displays from our product packaging design group; and contract packaging services custom designed to handle all the details of packaging and shipping your products throughout the country. Custom plastic packaging and contract packaging services are also a part of our service suite. Let Jamestown Container Companies be your complete packaging specialists so you can focus on your own business expertise.

We have plants in Cleveland Ohio, Buffalo, Rochester, Falconer and North Tonawanda, New York. To find the location nearest you, call 800.766.9001.
