Selling points
When promoting your bowl covers at a craft show or online, be sure to mention the following points in your signage/product description/sales pitch:
- Food-safe plastic – it’s essential to note that you have sourced materials that are food-safe and won’t introduce harmful chemicals when they come into contact with food.
- Waterproof – this means it will help keep moisture in the food, similar to how plastic wrap does. This will be an important selling feature for those who make bread and need a cover for when their dough is proofing.
- Eco-friendly – reusing these covers means there’s less environmental impact. You could also use organic cotton, hemp, or linen for the top of the cover.
- Washable – whether your food covers must be handwashed/rinsed or can be thrown in the washer, will depend on the materials you choose. However, the fact that these items can be cleaned is a bonus.
- Sets – you can bundle different sizes and shapes (e.g. a casserole cover) into sets at a slightly reduced price, so customers are able to save money when buying more than one.
