The festive season is upon us and every day, more and more people are braving the crisp winter weather to get started with their Christmas shopping.
For businesses, this is the perfect time to get a boost to your sales, but it’s also an amazing opportunity to change up your bags. During this festive season, why not opt for a printed kraft bag and ditch the conventional plastic?
Here, we’ve put together a number of reasons why you should switch things up this Christmas and invest in kraft bags for your customers.
Do Your Bit For The Environment
If there was ever a reason to change from plastic to paper, it should be the environmental benefits it can bring. With the average person in the UK creating 76kg of plastic waste, the Kraft bag is the perfect solution to combat this growing issue. Consumers are increasingly looking to retailers to make their move to combat this, and with over 800,000 tonnes of plastic being thrown out by UK supermarkets per year, now is the ideal time to start doing your bit for the environment.
The world has begun to open its eyes to environmental issues; Earth Day was created in 1970 to encourage people to be environmentally friendly and celebrate the beautiful planet that we are surrounded by, but support has grown, even being exercised by a number of well-known celebrities including Leonardo Di Caprio, Miley Cyrus and Emma Watson. Brands are consistently becoming more environment-conscious as a result of this, increasing awareness – and more and more often, we’re seeing an increasing demand for brands that offer eco-friendly, cruelty-free products and packaging. Your carrier bags are no exception.
Making the switch to recyclable kraft bags offers your brand the chance to not only capture the conscious customer base but also do your bit for the environment, especially during such a busy time of the commercial year.
Creatively Customisable
As well as being completely biodegradable, our printed Kraft bags are a blank canvas for you to customise to your heart’s content. This is ideal for your business as it allows you to customise with your brand logo, seasonal decoration or anything you choose and, as a result, engage with your audience more effectively. Whether you decide to have a simple black and white colour theme or go all out with our festive packaging options, there is plenty of creative choice for your ultimate Christmas kraft bags.
You could use business-branded hashtags on your bags, or include a QR code for quick access to your website – these small features may not seem like much, but they can offer an entirely new way to both connect with existing customers and attract new ones.
Promotion, Promotion, Promotion!
Kraft bags are truly the perfect way to promote your brand this festive season. There is a substantial amount of blank space to place your design and any text that you require and as your customers wander around to do their shopping, these bags will work as an effective moving advertisement. Whenever someone purchases a product from you over the Christmas period, it helps to increase brand awareness – this is great for big and small businesses alike.
Our specially printed Kraft bags are ideal when the Christmas season arrives, and with a unique customisable design, you can get your festive campaign well and truly underway! Order yours from us here at The Printed Bag Shop, today.
