In the past 6 months we've sourced Southco for their enclosures for our consumer product division. In general they have been a very dependable company and their enclosures have so far been of very good quality. Their prices are in line with others in the industry and they deliver as promised. We have only had one issue arise which was quickly remedied by their customer service department so kudos to them on that. I would recommend giving them a look if you are looking for product enclosures.
