About Paper Bag Ink


Considering that plastic bags are an indispensable tool in the sale of products and in the provision of services, replacing plastic bags with paper bags will go a long way to reduce the plastic waste generated in Ghana. This means, the millions of people buying and selling on a daily basis will use them to transport their goods.


Bag Ink provides a unique service to distribute paper bags to shopping outlets, retailers, road side vendors and neighborhood stores for free. To fund this service, the Chamber of Entrepreneurship is using the sides of the paper bags as advertising space to place your company’s adverts and promotional messages on the freely distributed brown paper bags used for wrapping and packing produce and products.


As a company that provides a product or service, it is imperative that you reach as many prospective users as possible. It is therefore important that you find the most effective medium to reach your prospective clients without incurring too much cost. Paper Bag Ink is just the medium for you.


With Paper Bag Ink, there is a unique opportunity for exclusive advertisement on hundreds of thousands of paper shopping bags. Can you imagine all the paper shopping bags that act as billboards, with your company’s personalized message? Think about it, these shoppers are carrying your message as they walk down the street parading your product or message. Good luck trying to get your company’s message out in such an overcrowded world of TV, Internet and Newspapers. This unique advertisement lets you stand out from the crowd while your competition is paying for ads that don’t work.
We humbly introduce this great service to you and request that you consider advertising with Paper Bag Ink today to project your brand through this efficient and relatively inexpensive medium while contributing to reducing plastic waste in Ghana.
