Product: Cotton Bags

Cotton bags are not only durable and environmentally friendly; they are cost effective too. The long handle makes it particularly comfortable to carry and re-use. A ‘bag for life’ that looks fabulous when branded.

Requirements

Watts Gallery were looking for a bag they could sell in their gift shop that would be a meaningful memento of the visit, without costing a fortune.

“Templecoombe were recommended by a colleague for good prices and excellent service.”

Solution

The cotton bag in the natural fabric is perfect to showcase the Watts Gallery logo. The cotton bag fulfilled the brief being cost effective to sell on at an affordable price. Visitors feel they are buying something for themselves or as a gift that is useful and meaningful. It will be reused and this gives the added benefit of long term advertising and brand awareness for the gallery.

Results

The Watts Gallery logo looks stunning on the cotton bag; it is a beautiful logo anyway but the natural cotton fabric sets off the colour and boldness perfectly. “We are very pleased with the end product.”
