Ours has become a more health-conscious country. Although that doesn't mean we have become a healthier country, per se, it does mean that Americans are more aware than ever of health risks and other factors that have the potential to impact their well-being. In few areas is this more apparent than that of food in general and snacks in particular.
Snack food has become booming business with snacks often taking the place of meals. Healthy snacks are, therefore, becoming increasingly popular. And among the most popular of these is dried fruit. Whether it be dried cranberries, dates, pineapples, apples or the old standby raisin, more and more people are buying dried fruit to snack on. So what can you do to make more shoppers buy your dried fruit?
One simple way to build your dried fruit sales is by using stand up bags to package your products. These bags are sometimes referred to as stand up pouches, Mylar® stand bags and custom printed stand bags.
Designed to keep out moisture, vapor and odor, these bags are made from laminating together multiple layers of specialty film barriers. Not only do these bags protect dried fruit from environmental factors, but they seal in flavor, fragrance and nutritional potency during storage via use of available zip seal closures.
As indicated by the name, stand up bags stand up on the shelf and stand apart from the competition. The retailer has the option of a hanging display if you order the available
sombrero-style or round hang holes. Either way, your product's visibility will be increased in the store aisle.
sombrero-style or round hang holes. Either way, your product's visibility will be increased in the store aisle. Speaking of visibility, your package will be as visible as you can make it. The design of stand up bags yields front and back panels that have ample room for your company labels or for custom printing of your text and graphics in up to 10 colors. The two can be combined to even greater effect.
Not surprisingly, consumers who purchase healthy snacks routinely care about the health of the environment as well. Stand up bags will help you build sales with that demographic because they are recyclable and because they take up little more room in a landfill than an empty shipping envelope.
When it comes to building your snack food sales, nothing satisfies like stand up bags to feed your need for a healthier bottom line. Want to learn more?
