# Hot Sauce Pod

> Precision-cut, bottle-specific shipping pods (cardboard packaging) for craft
> hot sauce makers. Wholesale tier pricing built into every product page —
> per-box cost drops automatically as order quantity climbs (25, 50, 100, 250,
> 500+). Manufactured in New Hampshire, USA; orders ship in 2–3 business days.

Hot Sauce Pod sells shipping packaging — the boxes hot sauce brands use to
ship their bottles to customers — not the hot sauce itself. Each pod has
precision-cut slots sized to a specific bottle volume so the bottle is held
snugly in transit without rattling or breaking. Pods ship and store flat,
then fold together without tape.

Trusted by 1,000+ brands across 250,000+ boxes shipped. Custom-printed runs
(your logo on the box) are available starting at 500 units.

## Pricing model

Wholesale tier pricing is automatic. The per-box price drops as the order
quantity climbs — every product page shows the live tier and the next tier
the buyer would unlock. Larger orders mean a lower per-unit cost; no
negotiation, no quote-and-wait. Custom-printed runs have a one-time print
plate fee on the first order, then reorders skip the fee.

## About

Hot Sauce Pod was started by makers who were frustrated with how often their
glass bottles arrived broken from shipping. We manufacture the pods
ourselves out of New Hampshire and have grown to 29+ configurations almost
entirely from customer requests. Contact:
