Why Wicker Shopping Baskets Are a Popular Choice
When you own a retail establishment, whether your selling fresh goods or clothes for example, having Shopping Baskets for your customers to use is essential. Not only do shopping baskets help to make the shopping experience more enjoyable for customers, but they can even encourage customers to purchase more from you during their visit.Nowadays, there is a huge range of shopping baskets available, in the market in addition to the traditional Metal Shopping Baskets and Plastic Shopping Baskets. A wide selection of retail store owners are swapping from these traditional baskets to a more unique alternative. Our Wicker Shopping Baskets have become increasingly popular choice, particularly within farm shops and garden stores, to mention a few. This as they have a rustic look and are better for the environment. If you’ve never considered purchasing wicker shopping baskets before, we have highlighted some of their benefits below.
They’re Incredibly Durable
When compared to plastic alternatives, wicker shopping baskets offer a little more durability. You can purchase this type of basket knowing that sections won't break off due to heavy handed customers and it will be able to withstand the wear and tear suffered from consistent customer use. The thicker handles of wicker shopping baskets make them much more comfortable for customers to carry around with them as well, especially when purchasing heavier items.
They’re More Environmentally Friendly
Due to the fact that wicker shopping baskets are made from materials such as willow, they are much better for the environment. Generally speaking, this type of basket is made predominantly with renewable raw materials and this can help to reduce your business’ carbon footprint. Lots of customers are keen to shop with retail stores that are sustainably conscious and therefore, you may find that your customer base increases when you have wicker shopping baskets.
They’re Aesthetically Pleasing
There is no denying that wicker shopping baskets are more attractive than plastic or metal alternatives. These baskets have been designed to be not only durable and long-lasting, but also aesthetically pleasing. They can help to create a welcoming, country and homely feel to your store. If you own a bakery, organic food shop or hand-made jewellery store, for example, this type of basket will also fit in really well with your brand image.
They’re Just as Convenient to Use
Contrary to common belief, wicker shopping baskets are just as convenient to have in store as plastic and metal baskets. There are a number of wicker shopping baskets that have foldable handles and are stackable, enabling you to easily and neatly store your baskets when they’re not being used by customers. Some baskets even fit well inside classic shopping trolleys, which can be useful when customers end up purchasing more than they initially intended to.
