How to Choose the Right Catering Supplies
Match the size to your menu
Start with your most popular dishes and choose pack sizes to suit them. Over-sized packaging wastes money and looks empty; too small risks spills and poor reviews. Many catering supplies come in multiple sizes, so sample one case before ordering bulk.
Choosing materials
Paper-based and compostable materials work well for venues with eco-conscious customers, while polypropylene and aluminium are still the value choice for high-volume kitchens. Check heat resistance for hot food, grease-proofing for fried menus, and microwave-safety if customers reheat at home. UK single-use plastic rules ban certain items — our range is compliant.
Think in cost-per-serve
Compare products on cost per serve rather than case price. A slightly dearer case with 25% more units is often cheaper per meal. Our bulk tiers cut the per-unit price as you add cases, and part-box options let newer businesses start small without tying up cash.
Storage and shelf life
Packaging need dry, clean storage space — plan around what you can store instead of bulk you cannot rack. Cases are labelled with counts and dimensions so you can plan shelf space in advance. Rotate stock first-in-first-out and keep paper-based lines away from damp to avoid warping.
Bulk Buying & Trade Accounts
Every product has automatic quantity discounts — prices step down as volume rises. Gateshead businesses ordering weekly can contact us for account terms, and our current deals page lists short-dated and promotional stock. Every order comes with a full VAT invoice for your records.

Eco credentials matter for Gateshead diners: councils and delivery platforms increasingly favour recyclable and compostable formats. Switching even part of your range to kraft, bagasse or FSC paper is a story worth telling — and our range prices those options competitively.
First time ordering wholesale? Start small with one case of your two or three fastest lines, track usage for a fortnight, then move to a regular reorder. Most Gateshead customers settle into a predictable rhythm that spreads cost and storage manageable.
