Mini Crates - A Growing Business!











Bunches, first established in 1989, is one of the UK’s leading online retailers of fresh flowers, plants and other gifts. They utilise a supply base from different countries and approached WoodenBox UK in late 2014 to see if we could provide a competitively-priced alternative to their existing plastic-lined wooden crate used for various gifts in the range.

After a couple of samples, the crate itself was very simple to provide but providing a plastic lining was something that we had never previously experienced. Using our own extensive supply network, we were able to find an appropriate lining and our team of experienced  assemblers were able to learn a new skill in gluing the liners into position.

Eighteen months on and we have now supplied well over 10,000 of these units in more than one colour.

Bunches experience a number of high seasonal peaks in demand and WoodenBox UK has been able to work with them to ensure a safe and reliable source of supply.

This is truly a ‘growing’ business!

Bespoke Design and Print from WoodenBox UK

As WoodenBox UK is a UK manufacturer of wooden packaging and retail displays, we are able to respond to a customer's requirements very quickly.

Taking the client's brief, we are able to make printed samples within a few days, before going into full production.

The example here shows a concept for a greetings cards retail display for Sophie Morrell based on our rustic wooden crates. The client wanted a rustic looking modular shelving system to highlight their unique greetings cards. This picture is from their recent stand at the Top Drawer London exhibition at Olympia.

The show provided Sophie Morrell with many new vendors for their card range, most of which have invested in the shelving displays as well.

For more information on our bespoke design work, please don not hesitate to contact us on 01384 445844 or visit the bespoke pages at www.woodenboxuk.com/bespoke, or take a look at our Pinterest Boards for more bespoke and print ideas.
