Boosting Time-to-Hire to 7 Days for 150+ Packaging Hires

How a TalentLaunch Brand Became the Client’s Total Package for Hiring
Background
As part of the TalentLaunch network, Bonney Staffing has been helping Maine businesses find the right people for decades. One of those businesses? A well-established New England manufacturer known for producing corrugated cardboard and custom packaging solutions.
Their Biddeford-area operation plays a big role in the regional supply chain, and they needed a workforce that could flex with market demand without missing a beat.
The Challenge
When business soared, their workforce couldn’t keep up. High turnover, inconsistent applicant flow, and a constant stream of production deadlines had the client feeling boxed into a corner.
Hiring packaging associates at scale was mission-critical. They needed a staffing partner who knew the local market, could move fast, and wasn’t afraid to get a little scrappy to get results.
So they turned to the pros who know how to think inside the (corrugated) box: Bonney.
Our Approach
Bonney didn’t tape together a quick fix. By listening, learning, and showing up every single day, they built a custom solution from the inside out:
Step one: Get in sync. Through daily check-ins, Bonney got to know the company’s culture, challenges, and goals like the back of their hand.
Step two: Polish the pitch. Job descriptions were repackaged—more clarity, more connection, more “here’s why you’ll want to work here.”
Step three: Pack in the talent. Once the strategy was dialed in, Bonney got to work—delivering qualified candidates faster than you can say “packing peanuts”.
The Results
What started as an urgent hiring need turned into a long-term partnership built on trust, hustle, and results that stick.
- 14 critical roles filled in just 7 days
- 150+ placements made (and counting) in the Biddeford area
- Payrolling services added to streamline HR and cut costs
“You and your staff have done an awesome job supplying us with temps and we value our partnership.”
