(sub)contract processing order


Explanation:
This seems to be a term mostly used in Belgium. My first guess was "salary processing order", which would be a more literal translation. But then I Googled the term "loonverpakker" from your context, which turns out to be something like a (sub)contract packager, a company that (re)packages products for other companies. So therefore I suggest a similar translation for "loonbewerker". Whichever term you settle on, I'd use the same for "loon" in "loonbewerking" and "loonverpakker".

Hope that helps.

Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  Ken Cox: not (sub) unless specifically indicated by the context, and 'processing' can be omitted in English. The distinction is between an order for contract work (made to order) and an order for stock goods sold or resold by the vendor (sales order, trade order)
