A packaging system wraps a sheet material around an article supplied at an article supply station and discharges the article at a discharge station. The packaging system includes a turret which is intermittently rotated by 180 DEG , a pair of body wrapping mechanisms which are provided on the turret at an interval of 180 DEG so that they are alternately positioned at the article supply station and the article discharge station when the turret is stopped. Each of the body wrapping mechanisms wraps the sheet material around the body of the article while the body wrapping mechanism is rotated from the article supply station to the article discharge station. A sheet supply mechanism supplies the sheet material, while the turret is stopped, from outside to a predetermined position on the turret where the sheet material can be supplied to the body wrapping mechanism.
