How to Choose the Right Straws

Match the size to your menu

Begin by looking at your most popular dishes and select pack sizes to suit them. Too large a container costs more and presents badly; under-sized packaging leaks and damages your reviews. Many straws come in multiple sizes, so sample one case before ordering bulk.

Material matters

Kraft and bagasse options work well for venues marketing sustainability, while plastic and foil are still the value choice for high-volume kitchens. Consider 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 compliant.

Think in cost-per-serve

Compare products on cost per serve rather than case price. More units per case frequently beats a cheaper headline price. Our quantity discounts cut the per-unit price automatically, and part-box options let newer businesses try lines without tying up cash.

Plan your storage

Packaging need shelf space — order a realistic weekly volume rather than one giant quarterly drop. Case dimensions are listed on product pages so you can work out storage in advance. Use older cases first and keep paper-based lines dry to protect them.

Bulk Buying & Trade Accounts

Each line carries automatic quantity discounts — the more cases you add, the lower the unit price. South Shields customers ordering weekly can get in touch for account terms, and our current deals page lists clearance and seasonal offers. VAT invoices are issued automatically for your records.
