Quick answers

What colours can the custom shopping bag be ordered in?

Two: White and Red, chosen from the Color Name dropdown. White gives the widest choice of logo colours, while Red makes the bag itself part of the branding. If you need another shade, the custom printed bags Manchester page covers the other bag styles we produce.

What is the minimum order for printed shopping bags?

Orders start at 50 bags, priced from £393.07 on the cheapest colour. The quantity then climbs in steps of 25 to 300, in fifties to 500, and on to 750 and 1000. Fewer than 50 isn't offered here; for short runs look at the Cotton Tote Bags.

What material are the shopping bags made from?

The product page doesn't state the bag material, size or handle type, so please don't assume one. If those details decide whether the bag works for your shop or event, ask before ordering. Send the question through the contact page, or compare clearly specified alternatives such as Printed Paper Bags.

How long does it take to print shopping bags?

Expect around 4 working days for production. That figure is typical rather than a fixed date, and delivery adds time unless you collect from Manchester. For a shop opening or exhibition date that can't move, flag it to the team first via Get a Quote or by phone on 0161 315 1151.

Can you design the artwork for my shopping bags?

Yes. At the artwork step choose the Professional artwork and design service (+£36.00), and a designer lays out your logo and message for the bag. If your file is ready, supplying it costs nothing extra. Retailers refreshing their whole identity can start with the Logo and Brand Refresh.

Are printed shopping bags delivered across the UK?

Yes. Bags can be sent to any UK address, with the delivery cost displayed at checkout. Local customers can also collect from Unit 3, 116 Bury New Road, Manchester M8 8EB. The areas we regularly work in are listed on our areas we cover page.

What are custom shopping bags used for?

Mainly for customers to carry purchases home, which turns every sale into a walking advert. They are also handed out at exhibitions and used to bundle leaflets and samples at events. For the rest of your shop branding, see our shop signs Manchester service.

Asked by buyers 22

Should I choose White or Red shopping bags?

Start with your logo. A logo with red in it can disappear on a Red bag, so White suits it better. A white or very light logo needs the Red bag to show. If your brand already uses red heavily, Red bags look deliberate and stand out on a busy high street.

Can I get the shopping bags in black or another colour?

Only White and Red are listed for this bag. For other colours, compare the Custom Cotton Tote Bag with Coloured Handles or the Carolina Tote Bags, which offer different looks for a branded carry bag.

What size is the custom shopping bag?

Size isn't listed on the product page. If the bag needs to hold a shoebox, a bottle or an A4 brochure, ask for the dimensions before ordering rather than guessing. Call 0161 315 1151 or email hello@webprintsigns.co.uk and the team will confirm what you need to know.

Where does the print go on a shopping bag?

The placement and printable area aren't given on the page. Most retailers keep it simple with a logo and a web address on the main face of the bag. Ask the team for the print area before building your file, using the contact page.

How much text should I put on a shopping bag?

Less than you think. A bag is seen while someone walks past, so a logo, a short line and a website or social handle are usually enough. Long lists of services get ignored. Save the detail for a leaflet popped inside the bag; our leaflet printing Manchester service handles those.

Why is 250 shopping bags cheaper than 225?

Price breaks don't always rise in a straight line. On the cheapest colour, 225 and 250 bags both come to £1,103.09, so the extra 25 bags cost nothing more. Above that the total climbs again, with 450 at £1,896.34 and 500 at £1,917.58. Check the step above your number before you settle; the configurator shows the live figure for each quantity.

How far does the quantity go for shopping bags?

The top step is 1000 bags, with 750 just below it. Busy shops getting through bags quickly often order at one of those levels. For more than 1000, or a figure between two steps such as 600, ask for a price on the quote form.

Can I split 100 bags between White and Red?

Each colour is a separate cart line, and the minimum per line is 50. So 50 White plus 50 Red works, but 70 and 30 does not. Each line is priced at its own quantity step, which may cost more than 100 in one colour. For a mixed order priced together, use Get a Quote.

What file should I send for shopping bag printing?

A print-ready PDF with vector logos and outlined fonts is the safest choice. Avoid hairline detail and very small text, as both are hard to read on a bag. Set the background to match the bag colour you selected so you can judge contrast. For more on preparing branded print, see our point of sale printing page.

Can I print a seasonal design on shopping bags?

Yes. Retailers often run a Christmas or sale design alongside their standard bag. Order it as a separate cart line with its own artwork file. Remember the 50-bag minimum per design. For window displays to match the seasonal bag, see our shop window graphics service.

My logo is red. Will it show on the Red bag?

Probably not well. A red logo on a red bag has little contrast and can vanish at a distance. Choose White, or use a white or reversed version of your logo on the Red bag. The paid design service can set up that reversed version if you only have the red file.

How do I order custom shopping bags online?

Choose White or Red, select your quantity and watch the total update. Then pick your artwork route and add the bags to the cart. Payment is by card through Stripe, covering Visa, Mastercard, Apple Pay and Google Pay. You can add other items from the print shop before checking out.

Is delivery included in the shopping bag price?

No, the configurator price covers the bags and artwork choice. UK delivery is calculated and added at checkout, so you see the full amount before paying. Collecting from the Manchester studio avoids the delivery charge. Read more about Web Print Signs and where we are based.

Can I reorder the same shopping bag design later?

Yes. Keep your print-ready file and order the same colour and quantity again when stock runs low. Shops that get through bags steadily often reorder at 500 or 1000. If you used the design service first time, ask the team for your file details when you come back through the contact page.

Can I collect shopping bags from your studio?

Yes, collection is from Bury New Road in Manchester. A few hundred bags take up room, so bring a car or van with space. Collection suits shops in Wigan, Prestwich, Eccles and Ashton-under-Lyne that want the bags in hand. Other nearby towns are listed under areas we cover.

When should I order bags for an exhibition?

Allow around 4 working days for production, plus delivery to the venue, plus a buffer for artwork questions. Ordering two weeks before build-up day is comfortable. Our exhibition graphics Manchester team can produce the stand graphics to arrive on the same schedule.

Are printed shopping bags worth it for an independent boutique?

They can be, as every bag that leaves the shop advertises it on the street. The 50-bag minimum keeps the first order manageable. Pair the bags with branded swing tags so the products look finished; see our hang tag printing service.

Can I use shopping bags as exhibition goody bags?

Yes. Fill them with a brochure, a pen and a business card, and visitors carry your brand around the hall. A Red bag is easy to spot in a crowd. For something to drop inside, the Bullet Nash Ballpoint Pen is a low-cost extra.

Do shopping bags suit takeaways and food shops?

They can carry boxed orders, but check the size first, as dimensions aren't listed. Food businesses often prefer bags designed for takeaway; see the Takeaway Paper Bags and compare. Ask the team if you're unsure which suits your food.

Can charities use printed shopping bags at fundraising events?

Yes. Charity shops and fundraising stalls use them to package donated goods and spread the charity's name. A clear logo and website on the bag helps people find you later. For a different style of bag, compare the Cotton Sack.

What else should a new shop order alongside its bags?

Think about what a customer sees from the street to the till. A fascia sign, window graphics, price tags and bags work together. Our price tag printing service and fascia signs cover the in-store and shopfront pieces.

Which other branded bags do you offer?

Several. The packaging and bags category covers paper bags, bottle bags and boxes, while cotton and tote bags sit in the promotional range. The Madras Tote Bag is another option worth comparing.
