subject: Reusable Cloth Grocery Bags Are Unique Green Products [print this page] All over the world commercial enterprises have started encouraging unique green products like reusable cloth grocery bags and organic body wash. One of the reasons is that the customers now are not only aware of the possible hazards to the ecology but also wish to have all the green products to make their share of contribution to a greener and safer world. Considerations relating to well being of their family members and especially the children also make a major contribution to such developments.
Commercial Considerations
However, commercial organizations may not be very keen on the welfare aspects of the reusable products they sale. Instead it is the commercial aspect of such products that induce them to sale goods like reusable shopping bags or reusable tote bags. These bags can substantially increase sales by attracting the customers and thereby increase the profit margins as well.
Profitability Aspects
Usually the non woven polythene bags would cost in the range of $0.10 to $0.25 on average and the sale value of the same products come in the range of $0.99 to $3.00. Since the market is oversaturated the stores receive diminishing returns on them. In addition; there are concerns regarding further drop in prices due to decline in demands. That is why the commercial enterprises are turning to other products those are more acceptable. Calico or string bags that are made with fairly reusable products are an example of the alternatives available. At the same time the profit margins for the commercial enterprises are much higher with such reusable bags and their demands are also on the rise.
Scenario in United States
With growing concern over environmental imbalance, more and more people in United States are turning towards eco-friendly reusable products and energy savers. Even for personal anatomic uses, people these days prefer such products like natural body care and organic face cleaners. Fact that in the last decade around three billion reusable bags have been imported to United States for the purpose of resale as well as give away following the Harmonized Tariff Code or HTC guidelines also confirms the domination of eco-friendly reusable bags in the market.
It would not be a surprise if reusable bags completely dominate the market at the expense of disposable plastic bags in near future.
