Branded Napkins are paper napkins with a business logo or design that are provided in bulk quantities in foodservice applications, cafeterias, and restaurants. Napkins are frequently used in busy kitchens and dining rooms and serve as a marketing tool and a true cost of operation. Deli Paper is a company that provides custom printed napkins for well-traveled businesses to keep them on brand and on track with napkin usage.

It makes sense that there is a need for a smarter Napkin setup for Busy Operations.

Napkins go missing very quickly in a busy restaurant. Customers pick up handfuls at the self-service stations, staff complement each takeout bag, and plenty end up in the trash unused. All that rubbish eventually accumulates over months.

The right napkin arrangement doubles up on solving two issues. Controlled dispensing helps to limit the number of printed napkins that leave the property; and printed napkins ensure that the napkins that are used are branded. Busy operations make the most of the cases they purchase.

The advantages of Branded Napkins in busy environments.

• Less waste: One-at-a-time dispenser napkins prevent over-use of the product, unlike open stacks.
• Lower per-customer costs: Managing usage extends the life of each case.
• Quick service: Staff quickly refill dispensers rather than loose piles.
• Uniform branding: Your logo remains on display on printed napkins at tables, counters, and in takeout bags.
• Cleaner stations: Napkins are kept clean and protected from spills and handling with enclosed dispensers.

The most heavily used food service napkins are at these locations.

• Fast food and fast casual restaurants
• Dining halls, cafeterias, and food courts.
• Stadiums, arenas, and event venues.
• Coffee tables and counters
• Hospitals and corporate dining facilities
• Grab n’ go and pickup locations with high order volumes

Napkin Use Control Strategies

• Provide dispensers at self-service stations: When fewer napkins are taken, dispensing one at a time leads to reduced use.
• Establish rules for takeout bags: Train employees to include a certain number of napkins with each takeout order.
• Consider the napkin size based on the menu: Large r custom printed napkins may be better for meals that are messier, while smaller napkins could be used for drinks and snacks.
• Place printed napkins where they are seen: Use branded napkins at tables and in takeout orders to get the most brand value.
• Monitor consumption by week: Consumption monitoring will allow you to place the correct amount of orders and identify waste in its early stages.
