Why Brands Choose Brand My Bags for Restaurants Packaging
Six things a restaurants brand can check before it spends a dollar with us.
500 bags
A retail SKU without a retail commitmentMost converters won't quote a restaurant under a few thousand bags, which is why kitchen products stay in deli containers with a sticker. From 500, the house rub can go on the counter this month, and the run pays for itself in a week of covers.
<0.1 cc
Freshness that travels homeWhat a guest tastes at the table has to survive a week in their pantry. Film under 0.1 cc/100in²/day and 0.02 g/100in²/day keeps a rub aromatic, a granola crunchy and coffee fresh-roasted — the product they'll come back for.
Both sides
The label a retailer asks for, printedTo sit on a shelf outside your door a product needs ingredients, allergens, net weight and a barcode. Edge-to-edge print on both sides puts all of it on the bag at a readable size.
Oak Park, Michigan
We own the pressesYour bags are printed on our own equipment in Oak Park, Michigan. Most "manufacturers" in this category are brokers reselling an overseas run — there is nobody between your file and our press.
500 bags
500 bags, not 5,000Most converters will not quote a restaurant under 5,000 units. Quick Order starts at 500, with no plate fee and no setup fee, so a new SKU costs a few hundred dollars to test instead of a few thousand.
7–10 days
Printed and shipped freeProduction runs 7–10 business days from the day you approve the proof, and shipping anywhere in the US is free — quoted in the price you saw, not added at checkout.

Restaurant packaging questions
What restaurant products work best in a pouch?
Anything dry or shelf-stable the kitchen already makes — spice rubs, granola, coffee, tortilla chips, pancake and cocoa mixes, dried pasta, cookies.
The 4″×6″×2″ suits a 4 oz rub or blend, the 5″×8″×2.5″ an 8 oz granola, chips or coffee, and the 6″×9″×3″ a 1 lb bulk or gift bag.
Do you work with restaurants going into retail for the first time?
Yes — that's most of this page. Each design is its own run from 500 bags with no plate or setup fees, so testing one product costs a few hundred dollars.
Can I print ingredients and a barcode on the bag?
Yes — the bag prints edge to edge on both sides, so the back panel carries ingredients, allergens, net weight and a barcode at a readable size.
Is the film food-safe?
Yes — food-contact-cleared film, printed and converted in an SQF-certified facility.
What is the minimum order for custom retail pouches?
500 bags on every size — most converters will not quote a restaurant under 5,000 per run.
Every size, from the smallest flat pouch to the 8" × 12" × 4", starts at 500 bags — a tenth of the run most converters ask for, which is what makes testing a new SKU possible without committing to a run you have never sold a unit of.
How long does custom retail pouches take?
About 7–10 business days from the day you approve your proof, because every bag is printed in-house in Oak Park, Michigan.
