How to Choose the Right Straws

Size and portions

Begin by looking at your best-selling dishes and choose pack sizes to suit them. Too large a container costs more and presents badly; too small risks spills and poor reviews. Most straws come in multiple sizes, so test one case before committing to bulk.

Choosing materials

Kraft and bagasse options work well for venues marketing sustainability, while polypropylene and aluminium remain the value choice for busy kitchens. Check heat resistance for hot food, oil resistance for fried menus, and microwave-safety if customers reheat at home. UK single-use plastic rules restrict some lines — our range is fully 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 reduce the per-unit price automatically, and part-box options let newer businesses try lines without overstocking.

Storage and shelf life

Disposables take up dry, clean storage space — plan a realistic weekly volume instead of one giant quarterly drop. Case dimensions are listed on product pages so you can plan shelf space in advance. Use older cases first and keep kraft and paper products dry to avoid warping.

Bulk Buying & Trade Accounts

Each line carries automatic quantity discounts — the more cases you add, the lower the unit price. Gateshead businesses with regular volume can get in touch 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.

Sustainability is now a buying factor for Gateshead customers: local authorities and apps are pushing recyclable and compostable formats. Moving your most visible items to greener materials is a story worth telling — and our range prices those options for working margins.

First time ordering wholesale? Start small with a case each of your core items, measure how long they last, then set a simple fortnightly reorder. Most Gateshead businesses end up with a steady cycle that keeps cash flow smooth and shelves tidy.

Delivery apps changed the game: food now travels further and waits longer before it is opened. Venting, secure lids and grease barriers decide five-star and one-star reviews — so choosing delivery-grade packaging is money well spent in Gateshead's delivery-heavy market.
