Arrowfarms companies Morning Kiss Organic and Gold Bell announced the introduction of a new, fully compostable paper bag potato packaging. Among the most popular items in the produce department, potatoes have a high rate of consumption across all demographics.
The new potato packaging bags are made of 2-ply paper, with compostable glue used around the window of the bag. Made from sugar cane, even the mesh window itself is compostable. Morning Kiss Organic will offer organic gold, russet, and red potatoes in the new packaging. Gold Bell will offer conventional gold and russet potatoes sold under the brand name Morning Gold.
“Our new bags, which are fully compostable at home, fulfill a strong consumer demand for sustainable packaging,” says Michael Guptill of Morning Kiss Organic. “We hope that retailers will join us in this effort to increase sustainable packaging offerings in stores, and we hope this initiative will give consumers extra incentive to add potatoes to their shopping carts.”
