Tamerlan Marketing MCHJ is a growing agricultural production and food processing company based in Tashkent, Uzbekistan. With increasing demand for processed food products, the company recently established a new 20,000 sqm production facility designed to support scalable manufacturing and packaging operations.

As part of this expansion, processed food packaging labels and packaging efficiency became a strategic priority. In particular, the company recognized the importance of maintaining consistent quality and flexibility in processed food packaging labels, which play a critical role in product identification, compliance, and brand presentation.

Tamerlan Marketing MCHJ operates across multiple stages of the agricultural value chain, from raw material sourcing to food processing and final packaging. As the company introduced more product variations, label requirements became increasingly complex.

Previously, all processed food packaging labels and pouches were produced by external suppliers. While this approach initially supported growth, it gradually revealed operational limitations as production volumes and product diversity increased.

Pain Point: Challenges with Outsourced processed food packaging labels

Relying on third-party vendors for label production created several operational inefficiencies. First, long lead times limited the company’s ability to respond quickly to changes in packaging design, regulatory updates, or market-specific requirements.

In addition, minimum order quantities often resulted in excess inventory or unnecessary reprints. Coordinating production schedules between multiple suppliers also increased administrative workload and introduced the risk of delays. Moreover, ensuring consistent print quality across different vendors proved to be an ongoing challenge.

As a result, outsourced label printing became a constraint rather than a support for the company’s expanding processed food operations.

Solution: Implementing the ANY-JET II Digital Label Press

To address these challenges, Tamerlan Marketing decided to internalize the production of processed food packaging labels at its new facility. After reviewing available digital label printing solutions, the company selected the ANYTRON ANY-JET II.

The ANY-JET II is a digital inkjet label printer designed for high-resolution output and efficient short-to-medium run production. Its ability to support variable data printing, rapid job changes, and multiple SKUs made it well suited for processed food packaging applications.

By installing the ANY-JET II, Tamerlan Marketing gained direct control over label production schedules and design updates. Consequently, the company reduced its reliance on external suppliers and integrated label printing directly into its production workflow.

After Implementation: Measurable Improvements and Greater Control for processed food packaging labels

Since bringing label printing in-house, Tamerlan Marketing has achieved noticeable improvements in operational efficiency. Lead times for processed food packaging labels have been significantly reduced, allowing packaging to align more closely with actual production schedules.

Furthermore, the ability to print smaller batches on demand has minimized inventory waste and improved cost control. Consistent in-house printing has also ensured uniform label quality across all product lines, supporting both regulatory compliance and brand consistency.

Most importantly, the company now has the flexibility to respond quickly to changes in product information or market requirements, strengthening its overall competitiveness.

Mr. Erkinov, owner of Tamerlan Marketing MCHJ, shared his perspective:

“With the ANY-JET II, we have full control over our processed food packaging labels. It allows us to work more efficiently and respond faster to changes. This system has become an essential part of our production strategy.”
