Custom Shopping Bags

Custom shopping bags are printed paper bags with handles that customers carry out of a store or event, with your logo on the sides. Boutiques often choose coated board with rope or ribbon handles for a premium feel, while busy stores use kraft bags with twisted paper handles.

A shopping bag that keeps advertising after the sale

A shopping bag leaves the store with your customer and is seen on the street, in the car and often reused at home. A clean logo and a strong color carry further than detailed artwork on a bag that is mostly seen from a distance.

Two styles cover most stores. Kraft or white paper bags with twisted paper handles are practical for everyday retail. Boutique bags use thicker coated board, a folded top edge and rope or ribbon handles, and suit apparel, jewelry, cosmetics and gift shops.

Plan two or three sizes rather than one: a small bag for jewelry and accessories, a medium for most purchases and a large for shoe boxes or folded garments. Tell us what goes inside and we suggest widths and gussets.

Brands order shopping bags for boutiques and apparel stores, jewelry and cosmetics shops, holiday and gift retail, trade shows and events.

  • Rope, ribbon or twisted handles
  • Kraft, white or coated board
  • Foil, matte or gloss finishes
  • Sized to your products

FAQ

Shopping Bags FAQs

Still unsure? Ask a packaging specialist.

Which handle is best for a shopping bag?
Twisted paper handles are practical for everyday retail. Rope and ribbon handles feel more premium and suit boutiques and gift stores. Tell us the heaviest item you put in a bag and we suggest a handle and board weight.
What size shopping bags should a store order?
Most stores use two or three sizes: small for accessories, medium for most purchases and large for boxed or folded items. Send your product sizes and we suggest dimensions.
Are paper shopping bags recyclable?
Plain kraft and paper bags with paper handles are widely accepted in paper recycling. Laminated bags and rope or ribbon handles are harder to recycle, so ask a specialist if recyclability matters to you.
Can the bag match my gift boxes?
Yes. Order bags with your gift boxes or tissue paper and we match colors on the digital proof you approve before printing.

How ordering works: quote, digital proof, production, then delivery to the USA or Canada. Nothing prints until you approve the proof.
