Eco-Friendly Promotional Bags for Farmers Markets

If you're on this page you obviously already know the importance of promotional merchandise. But the real trick is in where to recognise in how to use promotional merchandise effectively. Promotional bags have been around as a means of promoting one's company for years, certainly as long as supermarkets have existed but they've come a long way since then.

The need nowadays to be more environmentally 'aware' has meant a huge uptake in the number of business now demanding eco-friendly promotional bags made of recycled paper or Jute. A jute bag in particular is really good for the environment because of it's lifespan...how long does a plastic carrier last? A jute bag can last for years.

Which brings us to our point. Promotional bags are perfect as 'giveaways' at farmers' markets. Farmers' markets themselves are becoming more and more popular across our great British shores as Television programmes, and lifestyle awareness is prompting consumers to buy their fresh food, veg and exotic alternatives in places other than the local out of town supermarket.

By giving away a free eco-friendly promotional bag, not only will you be doing 'your bit', and helping your consumers to get their produce home in one piece, but you'll also be ensuring that your 'brand' is carried around in the hands of local shoppers for months or years to come. A perfect promotional merchandise win-win!
