Spring Shows!

FC Meyer’s design team has been especially busy over the last few months, creating lots of new packaging for concessions, street food carts and bakeries.  To showcase these new products, we have committed to exhibit at several existing shows this year.

We will be exhibiting the New York International Restaurant Show, to be held March 4^th- 6^th at the Javits Center.  Please be sure visit us at Booth 2067.

New for us this spring are two shows – the first is the New England Food Show, which is going to be held March 11^th – 13^th in Boston.  Additionally, we’ll be at the Atlantic Bakery Expo March 18^th – 19^th.

Take-Out Boxes and Packaging for Summer Fast Food

Packaging the summer food is just like packing your bag for a day at the beach. Everything has to be well-thought out:

·         Is the box easy and fast to set up?

·         Does it use up storage space?

·         Can the box handle a variety of products?

Is the box easy and fast to set up?   Beach Resorts and Golf Courses have no time to set up elaborate packaging folding and creasing sequences.  The box, whether it is a catering box for boxed lunches, or a burger and fries box, must be either a convenient pop-up or nested pre-glued construction.

Does it take up storage space?   Kiosks, snack bars, burger and clam shacks all pack a lot into a very small space, sometimes less than 300 square feet.  The boxes either must be case packed knocked down flat or nested so they fit under the counter with enough quantity so one or two cases will be enough for a full day’s usage.

Can the box handle a variety of uses?   Our web corner, poly-lined box can safely contain juicy burger, French fries or onion rings, grilled sandwiches, twin dogs & fries, cheesy nachos, a tossed salad with dressing, vegetable sides, and even chili – all in one box!

Having the right package takes planning, right-sizing, and thoughtful and creative design to be more than a package for your product; executed correctly, it can be an ambassador for your brand and establishment.

MEYERBLOG

The FC Meyer crew just got back from the IDDBA show in Anaheim California (International Dairy Deli Bakery Association) June 5 – June 7 . The show’s theme this year was Rock Star Food so naturally our booth was dedicated to Rock Star Packaging and we brought out our Stars to a packed house that we clearly rocked!

Custom Packaging, FC Meyer style really stands out from the traditional food containers which are really just that something that contains food. Our one off packaging solutions are engineered around your product and they incorporate your total objectives; brand, customer ease of use, operational functionality as well as sustainability.

In addition to featuring our very own Chef Colleen who debuted our new MeyerKote family of recyclable barrier packaging and autographed plenty of her CD’s “In the Kitchen with Chef Colleen”, we also spotlighted our new Street Food Packaging which is the newest and hottest food trend in New York where we develop so many of our new packaging concepts.  Street Food is great food with big flavors, big personality combined with unique packaging that you stroll with. The new Yankee Pommes Fritte box is made to handle a wide range of tasty bites along with an in line condiment section.

We made the holder exactly to fit the fixture that the Yankees were using. Custom fit like a fine suit, in this case, a pinstripe suit!
