Non-Woven Bags for Supermarkets in India: Buying Guide
A supermarket should specify carry bags from measured checkout demand, actual basket contents, current requirements, samples, and written supply terms.
Measure Demand
- Track bag use by transaction, checkout, product group, day, and season.
- Record customer-supplied bags, paid bags, damage, returns, and unused stock.
- Separate store formats or branches when their baskets differ.
- Choose contingency from the retailer’s own operating plan.
Define the Product
- PP non-woven material, GSM, finished dimensions, and tolerances
- Seams, handle construction, reinforcement, gussets, closures, and packing
- Intended products, combined weight, edges, moisture, and handling
- Artwork, labelling, print area, proof, and acceptance criteria
Do not assign a size, GSM, or handle type to a product category without testing a finished sample.
Sample and Inspection
Test candidate bags with representative checkout baskets. Agree dimensions, tolerances, inspection method, sample size, evidence, and issue handling in the supply order.
Printing and Customer Information
Confirm the available process, artwork limits, substrate, colour tolerance, proof, and production capability. A printed bag does not guarantee visibility, loyalty, or repeat visits.
Pricing and Supply Terms
Use a current written quote for the approved specification and quantity. Do not assume a fixed discount or special rate at any quantity.
- Bag, setup, printing, proof, packing, tax, and freight charges
- Minimum order quantity and available quantity tiers
- Payment, quotation validity, and change process
- Production, dispatch, carrier, and delivery estimates
- Branch allocation, receiving, inspection, and issue handling
Regulatory Check
PP non-woven bags are plastic products. Verify the exact material, GSM or thickness, labelling, intended use, and location against current official requirements.
