Perfect product for outdoor event
Perfect product for our village coronation party, delivered quickly. In fact, the cups were good enough quality to be reused at least on the day. Would definitely recommend the products and the supplier.

With the single use plastic cutlery ban this October, you may wish to now try our range of wooden cutlery with a special caranuaba wax coating. Food safe, non toxic, and compostable, so no funny taste you get with other wooden cutlery. Adrian

Exactly why we setup Darren, to make it easy and affordable for anyone to make that switch away from oil based, single use plastic packaging. Buy 100s not 1000s, no minimum order and the more you buy, the more you save. Adrian

Amazing costumer services & prices
I believe this is my third purchase and all I can say is how happy I’m to have found this company online! Their prices are extremely competitive and the costumer service is impeccable! One of the items I was after turned out to ge out of stock, I was notified immediately and provided with a range of alternatives to chose from, I was kept on the loop throughout the whole process and my experience was 5🌟
Thank you so much!

Fast, efficient and very helpful service. I've used several times and the product quality is high and Aidrian has gone above and beyond to deliver quickly when I've needed quicker delivery times on more than one occasion.
