Covered Market Basket In Blue Plaid

Covered Market Basket In Blue Plaid

Blue and red plaid body with a fitted top cover on a folding frame

Product Overview

What This Item Is

A folding market basket in a blue and red plaid with a fitted top cover that closes over the opening. The cover is what turns a market basket into a picnic and transport basket: contents stay in place and out of sight when the basket is carried or left in a car.

Key Benefits

  • Fitted cover keeps contents in place and out of sight
  • Plaid pattern reads as traditional picnic rather than promotional
  • Frame and cover still fold flat together

Not stated in our records for this item: Dimensions. These are measured on a sample rather than estimated, so your specification carries a real figure.

Problems It Solves

  • Soft totes collapse in a car boot and contents arrive crushed.
  • Rigid crates do not fold, so they take up permanent space and are left at home.
  • Handle joints and frame hinges are the first parts to fail on a cheap basket.
  • Printed bodies fade and fray at the frame line where the fabric is under constant tension.

Who It Is For

  • Grocery and supermarket chains running own-brand reusable ranges
  • Farm shops, delis and food halls
  • Retail loyalty programmes at a spend threshold
  • Distributors supplying grocery and homeware buyers

Comparison

Compared with An open basket

Contents stay covered in transit, at the cost of slower loading at a till.

  • Body, trim and accessory colours matched to a physical reference
  • Finished size adjusted to what the bag has to carry
  • Woven labels, hang tags, care labels and retail packing

Use Guide

  • Brand on the cover, which is the largest flat surface
Questions

Questions About Covered Market Basket In Blue Plaid

Does the cover detach?

Confirm the attachment on the sample, as it varies by construction. Say whether you need it removable before sampling.

Can the cover be a different fabric from the body?

Yes. Using a plain cover over a patterned body gives a clean branding area while keeping the retail look.

What sizes do you have?

Several items in this range carry their size in the product code, for example 41 x 24 x 23 cm and 44 x 27 x 23 cm. Where a size is not marked on the source record it is shown as TBC rather than estimated; ask and it will be measured on the sample.

How does the basket fold?

The aluminium frame hinges inward and the fabric body collapses with it, so the basket lies flat for storage and for shipping. Fold and unfold the sample several times before approving it.
