Our History

50 years of innovation


Alliance Packaging, founded as Seattle Packaging, was founded in 1967 by Gordon Younger. Gordon was a salesperson for the Boise Cascade company who had had enough of working for a big company and wanted to work for himself. His idea is that instead of trying to make everything a little cheaper, he would try to make things a little better. By paying a little more for materials, by paying his employees a little more for their efforts, that he could charge a little more for a better box. Over the last 50 years, we have followed this philosophy to build the biggest independent packaging company in the Pacific Northwest.
