Short answer
What should custom catering packaging include beyond a logo?
Gav’s Kitchen shows that custom catering packaging can do more than advertise a logo. Allergen tick boxes, dietary markers, contact information and a location-catering message make the packaging useful to staff and customers while the black-and-white design keeps every format consistent.
Packaging as a service tool
Catering orders often include several meals with different dietary requirements. Clear identification matters for customer confidence and for teams distributing food on location.
Information designed into the pack
Rather than adding separate labels for every message, the print includes useful check areas and contact details. The circular logo and monochrome palette remain clear across the large catering box, bowl, cup and smaller folded box.
- Allergen and dietary fields help teams identify meals.
- Contact details turn each pack into a repeat-order prompt.
- One-colour artwork is clear and economical to reproduce.
- Consistent placement keeps mixed orders professional.
