Best 5 Promotional Bags For Shopping

One great way to make sure your promotional bags get used on a regular basis is to ensure they have a function. One way to do this is to focus on bags that can be used for shopping. Handing out bags of this style means people will use them long after the event where you handed them out. They not only act as a reminder to your clients about your business, but they also become walking billboards, as they carry your bag through public areas. You can utilise this free advertising as long as the type of bag you give away is useful to the recipient. We thought we would highlight what we consider the top 5 bags for shopping.

1. Watford Jute Bag

These are a combination of Jute and cotton, making them smoother to the touch than just raw jute. It also makes them easier to print and you have options for both screenprinting and a full-colour transfer. The padded cotton handles make them easy to hold, especially when full of groceries.

You have a large print area on either side of the bag to advertise your company and due to their robustness, people will gladly use these when they go shopping. An added bonus is the 12 different colours you have to choose from for the bag itself.

 

2. Metropolitan Shopping Bag

This one has been a big seller for many years. Made from non-woven material, the 19cm gusset means you can fit plenty of groceries in the bag. The handles are reinforced and currently, there are 15 different colours to choose from, making it easy to match any corporate colours.

They cost only a little over $2 each which includes branding in one colour, making them very affordable for any promotional budget. They are perfect to be handled out as larger trade show events, due to their competitive price.

 

3. Reusable Foldaway Shopping Bag

Perfect for throwing in the glove box or back seat, there is a huge range of foldable shopping bags, but this one we have found to be a big seller. Great range of colours and folds down on itself.

The material is 210D polyester which means they are robust enough to handle the weekly shopping but are also perfect for when you have to dash into a store to just pick up a few things.

 

4. Frosty Non-Woven Bag

If you really want to focus on a bag that has multifunction, these no woven cooler bags are perfect. You can use them for shopping, to put your cold groceries inside, but they can also be used to take cold drinks or food on a picnic. The more versatile a bag is, the more chances your clients will use them, so a cooler bag that can do both shopping and picnics, is perfect.

Add branding with either a full-colour printed transfer or screenprinting and you have the perfect advertising medium.

 

5. Belcastro Trolley Bag

Lastly, we have the trolley bags. Perfect for keeping in the car boot, they are designed to hold plenty of groceries and they have a large print area for your logo. People can't help but notice your branding and clients love them as they are both robust and have plenty of storage space.

They are designed to be able to be folded away, so they take up a minimal amount of space and the wheels have been specially reinforced to accept a weight up to 12 kilos. We have found this to be a shopping bag that people love to receive.

Did you know we have over 120 different styles of shopping bags on our website? So whether one of the above suits your requirements or you are looking for something different, you can either browse our site or contact us with your requirements and we'd love to be able to come up with some recommendations for you.
