Short-Lead Glass Jars: What Ships in 3-5 Working Days and What Takes Longer
Stock glass jars and bottles dispatch in 3-5 working days from a 500-pcs minimum. Decorated packaging takes 7-15 working days after artwork approval from a 2,000-pcs minimum. When your launch date is the constraint, the deciding factors are stock position and whether you need decoration.

Compressing the timeline
How to cut weeks off a packaging launch
Three levers decide your launch date: whether the item is held in stock, whether it needs decoration, and how fast the artwork gets approved. Only one of the three belongs to the factory.
Start from stock
A stock item skips tooling and print setup entirely and dispatches 3-5 working days after payment.
Approve artwork early
The decorated clock starts at artwork approval, so every day spent on the proof adds a day to the schedule.
