About Us

Leyland Packaging is a family-run packaging supplier, based in Northampton. Established over 35 years ago, we offer a professional, efficient and friendly service. Our continued success is due to our flexibility in providing our customers with a wide range of quality standard and custom-made packaging products at competitive market rates.

Our History

Founded in 1988, Leyland Packaging started in local premises above a corner shop in Northampton. John Bates, the founder, delivered orders to his customers across Northamptonshire in person and many of those first customers are still loyal customers today.

We remain a family-run, independent packaging supplier based in Northamptonshire, with John’s son, Mark Bates, now our Managing Director. With over 35 years in business, we have continued to grow and adapt without diluting the values we hold as a company.

Our mission is to continue to be a leading independent packaging company delivering innovative packaging solutions for all new and existing businesses.
