• Consider lengths and sizes for skewers and stirrers to suit appetisers, mains or tall takeaway cups.
• Prioritise compostable or biodegradable materials where you want to reduce single-use plastic.

• Think about presentation for events and front-of-house service, selecting styles that complement your branding.
• Check suitability for hot or cold foods, especially for coffee service and grilled items.
