General fulfillment operation with a verified FBA prep service. Never ranked and never counted in our prep-specialist stats.

Editor summary

ArcWorks is a contract manufacturer and co-packer at 1651 Lyell Avenue in Rochester, New York, and it is the manufacturing arm of The Arc of Monroe, a disability services organization that its own history page dates to the mid-1950s. ArcWorks marked its sixtieth anniversary in September 2023, so the operation dates to about 1963. That is the first thing a seller should know: this is a co-packing and contract packaging operation that also does Amazon prep, staffed by an integrated workforce that includes people with intellectual and developmental disabilities, not a prep center that also co-packs. Twelve capabilities run out of a stated 85,000 square foot facility with three Class 7 cleanrooms: third-party logistics, contract and co-packing, kitting and assembly, labeling and stickering, sorting and inspection, repackaging and reworking, shrink-wrapping, primary and secondary packaging, point-of-purchase displays, and Amazon FBA prep. The prep page covers inspection against Amazon guidelines, FNSKU and UPC label application, poly bagging and shrink-wrapping, bundling and kitting, and repackaging, then order processing, pick and pack, storage and freight. It does not mention carton labels, box content, or shipment plans, so confirm those in a quote. Cautions: there are no published per-unit rates, everything is quoted. The ISO 9001:2015 registration and the cleanroom count are the operator's own statements and were not checked against a registrar.
