Founding story
A family business, by design.
Felipe and Carmen Sixto founded Sixto Packaging in 1972 alongside their three sons — Felipe, Emilio, and Andres — with a simple idea: a converter where the people who built the company are the same people who run the press, answer the phone, and stand behind every roll that ships.
More than five decades later, three generations of the Sixto family remain active in daily operations. That continuity shows up in our color, our seals, our lead times, and in customer relationships measured in decades, not quarters.
We are a certified minority-owned, family-operated flexible packaging converter headquartered in Opa-locka, Florida — running 8-color flexographic printing up to 53″ wide, adhesive lamination, stand-up pouches, rollstock, coffee bags, shrink sleeves, and precision slitting up to 55″ wide, all under one roof.
