Takeaway coffee cup accessories also provide an opportunity for you to let the customer know you value them as a client. Some accessories can be printed with logos and advertisements or they are can come in your company’s colours. You can use accessories to do that little bit more to define your brand from your competitors.

Simple accessories like wooden stirrers, paper cup sleeves, sip lids and and carry trays, will make buying coffee from your business a memorable experience that is both convenient and hassle-free and it will encourage repeat business.

The stirrer

We have come a long way from the shared metal teaspoon. Customers today expect a certain standard of hygiene and personal consideration that a wooden stirrer will provide. The lightweight wooden stirrer is recyclable and biodegradable and a necessity  of any reputable coffee house. When a customers needs something to stir their drink with they can be put off by having to use either a plastic spoon that will end up in a landfill or a metal one used by someone else, it is something they will make a note of when they next want to purchase a hot drink.

Sipper domed lids

As an accessory, the sipper lid is a feature that coffee or tea drinkers on the go prefer. Sipper lids release steam from an opening on one side but still keep the drink warm especially when outside on a cold day.  They also allow the drinker to consume their hot drink amidst the hustle and bustle of a work commute without any chance of spillages, keeping the customer and fellow their passengers safe from the hot liquid. It is very rare to see a takeaway coffee cup these days without a sipper lid as customers know the advantages of having them.

Paper cup sleeves

The paper cup sleeve is a touch that adds to the overall positive experience your customers can have when they buy hot drinks from you. Designed to prevent the drinker’s fingers from being burnt, the paper cup sleeve is also an opportunity to advertise or further brand your customers’ takeaway experience. These sleeves are basically a walking advertisement for your company, you can also use your paper cup sleeve as a money earner, selling the space to complimentary brands that want to promote their services.

Carry-cup trays

Compostable, biodegradable and recyclable, carry-cup trays are another accessory that offer benefits to both you and your customer. They make it convenient for coffee buyers to carry more than one coffee cup on the go and of course also encourage purchasers to buy more than one drink at a time.  Carry cup trays also help to prevent spillages and are ideal to use in your car if you don’t have enough cup holders.
