Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Little Deli Co., a popular lunch spot in York, was looking to move away from single-use plastics to better reflect their brand's focus on local, sustainable produce. They found their previous packaging was flimsy and didn't present their premium sandwiches and cakes well.
"Our customers immediately noticed the switch. The Fiesta tray bases are so much sturdier and look far more professional. People feel better about their purchase, and we feel better about our environmental impact. It's a small change that has had a huge ripple effect on customer perception."
Michael Davies – Owner
Since switching, the deli has seen a notable increase in positive online reviews mentioning their eco-friendly packaging and improved presentation.

Setting It Up

Keeping It Going

Ever tried to lift a delicate piece of sushi or a sticky brownie off a paper plate, only for it to fall apart and leave half the good stuff behind? The non-stick lining on these Fiesta No 1 tray bases is designed to prevent exactly that. Think of it as a microscopic, built-in layer of greaseproof paper that’s completely invisible.
This clever lining creates a barrier between the food and the paper fibres. It means that whether you're serving a delicate, sticky rice-based dish or a gooey chocolate torte, it will slide off the base cleanly and effortlessly. For a busy kitchen, this means faster plating, less food waste, and a much more professional presentation every single time. It’s a small detail that makes a world of difference to the final product you hand to your customer.
