As the use of single-use plastic continues to decline, the use of reusable shopping bags is on the increase.

3. Branded Confectionery

Personalised confectionery is a great way to keep your customers sweet. Branded chocolates, personalised tins of sweets, or customised jelly bean pouches are a big trend for 2022 and are perfect for taking advantage of your customer bases’ sweet tooth.


Branded confectionery is great for incorporating into your giveaways or for sending out in your direct mail campaigns.
