Item Sustainability in Action The Packem Tote Bag Revolution(ATLAS SkillTech University, 2025) Acharekar, AnujaThis report provides an in-depth analysis of the operations, challenges, and achievements of PackEm, a sustainable fashion company specializing in reusable bags and accessories. Founded by Kashish Khimnani and Anuja Acharekar, PackEm operates under the umbrella of Balaji Industries and focuses on producing eco-friendly, stylish, and functional tote bags. The report highlights the company’s core processes, including market research, design ideation, material sourcing, and ethical production practices. At the core of PackEm's operations is a commitment to sustainability, mainly through ecological material uses and female employment in its production lines. The design team at PackEm, spearheaded by Anuja, undertakes the responsibility of designing products that appeal to existing market trends without compromising on the core value of environmental care that defines the brand. Due diligence in this company's line of production ensures that every single product they release into the market is quality-based on longevity. There are, however, a number of issues that develop against the successes: probably the biggest challenge is ensuring that at PackEm, sustainability and profitability go hand in hand. The eco-friendly materials, because of their nature, are mostly produced at a higher cost. For such a small company, the competition of well-established brands with greater market coverage needs to be fended off through constant innovation and differentiation. Other challenges include managing a complex sustainable supply chain and building a solid online presence.
