Types of Shopping Baskets:
Our baskets are suitable for different types of goods. If you sell lighter items, a net basket is a better option. If your baskets will be placed outside, a wire shopping basket is more suitable as plastic baskets may not withstand the weather. If you sell smaller items but prefer a rigid basket, then a plastic shopping basket is your best option. Basket stackers can be bought to keep the area organised and the baskets easily accessible for your customers.
Net Shopping Baskets
Easy to carry, expandable and stylish, our net shopping baskets are perfect for shops selling a variety of goods.

They come in a variety of colours, allowing you to choose options that complement your brand and create a cohesive look throughout your business.

Many retailers use net baskets for cosmetics, clothing and accessories as they are flexible and well-suited to smaller items that fall through the holes in plastic and wire baskets. They’re easy to use and collapse when they are put down. Thus ensuring they don’t take up large amounts of retail space. We can also brand all fabric baskets to better fit in with your store on request.
