There are many people who just love beef jerky. Delivering jerky to customers is not as easy task, as there are many packaging options and their own pros and cons. There is as much variety in beef jerky packaging as there is in beef jerky.
Depending on the needs of the consumer or the choice of a manufacturer, there are several ways to package beef jerky. There are stand up bags, cardboard boxes, and simple plastic bags.
A large proportion of the jerky that we see around in supermarkets comes in stand up bags. The beef jerky bag provides a convenient and easy-to-handle way to package small amounts of jerky. It is environment friendly as it doesn’t take much space in a landfill.
These bags are also good for advertising, as they provide a large surface area for printing company brand information. These small bags are normally used if there is between one and three ounces of jerky to package.
For larger quantities, a different type of packaging, known as hanging pouch packaging, is generally used. This type of packaging comes with a hang hole and a bottom gusset. This type of custom food packaging is expensive for two reasons. First, it is costly to manufacture. Second, only a few people buy more than one pound of jerky at a time.
