Custom shopping bags for your store gives your business a greater presence with your clientele. Many factors go into the shopping bags, including material, color, insignias, and logos.

Here are things you should consider for your custom shopping bags so you can discuss your needs with your supplier.

Materials

Do you want your shopping bags to be made of recycled or recyclable plastic? Is classic paper the design you are looking for? How about burlap or another type of material that your customers can reuse again and again?

The type of material you choose for your business's shopping bags represent the type of image you want to portray. For example, if you wish to be more environmentally friendly, consider burlap or paper bags. For convenience and ease of use (as well as showing your economical side), opt for traditional plastic.

Color

Most shopping bags are a relatively transparent white in design, although you can choose any hue you wish. Consider black shopping bags to give your business an exclusive appeal, or yellow or orange to convey a fun and happy image with your customers.

Red and purple are also eye-catching hues. You can also go with traditional white bags and add color in the form of an insignia, logo, or branding theme, which will be explained in further detail below. Or, if opting for a natural bag made of burlap or cloth, you can keep the bag completely dye-free for a traditional appeal.

Insignia/Logo

What image do you want to be placed on your shopping bags? Your company name should be imprinted on your bags, along with a message of some sort. You can put a company logo on your bags (if you have one) or a simple message to your customers that thanks them for shopping at your store.

Or, you can have your company's slogan emblazoned on the front or back of your bags to strengthen your business's presence with your customers. If you don't have any imagery in mind for your business's shopping bags, you can ask your shopping bag supplier to use stock images, such as dollar signs, smiling faces, flowers, or other images that will match your company's theme.

Custom shopping bags are essential to making your business more professional and give it a personal feel to your customers. You can really make your business stand out positively from your competitors by having shopping bags designed with your business's reputation in mind.
