Nylon bags for restaurants carry takeaway orders out of your door, and your name goes with them. Whether the order goes to an office, a home or a party, the bag is seen by everyone who meets it on the way. A printed bag also helps customers remember your name and your phone number the next time they are hungry.
This guide explains which size suits takeaway food, how to check the fit with your own containers, and what to print.

Which size suits nylon bags for restaurants
Many restaurants choose the Long Stationery Nylon Bags, which is 10 x 15 inches. It can usually hold about three takeaway plates stacked, though that depends on the size and depth of your containers. A single pack or a small snack order may fit the Short Stationery Nylon Bags. For bigger orders, such as several packs together, consider the Fashion Nylon Bags.
| Order type | Bag to consider | Check |
|---|---|---|
| One pack or a small snack | Short Stationery, 8.75 x 13.25 inches | Measure your container, including depth |
| Around three takeaway plates stacked | Long Stationery, 10 x 15 inches | Test with your real containers |
| Several packs and sides together | Fashion Nylon Bag, 14 x 18 inches | Measure the whole order together |
Container sizes vary. Always test with your own packs.
How to check the fit with your containers
- Take your usual takeaway pack, closed and ready to hand to a customer.
- Measure it in inches: width, length and height. See how to measure nylon bag size.
- Stack the most common order, for example three packs, and measure the stack.
- Allow room at the sides and the top, so the bag closes and the packs slide in.
- Confirm the size with your printer in inches before you order.
Pack the food in its own container and let the bag carry the container. If your food business has rules to follow, check the requirements of NAFDAC and your local authorities.
What to print on nylon bags for restaurants
- Your restaurant name, large and bold.
- One order line, a phone number or WhatsApp number, big enough to read. See phone numbers on printed stickers.
- One colour. Black on white is clear and easy to keep consistent from batch to batch.
- A simple logo. Details that are tiny can be lost. See logo placement on nylon bags.
