A good tote bag gets used again and again: for groceries, books, gym kit and work papers. Each trip out carries your logo with it. That makes branded totes a popular choice for conference delegate packs, retail stores replacing plastic bags, book launches, markets, schools, churches, NGOs and brands that want a useful giveaway rather than something that ends up in a drawer.
We supply tote bags in different fabrics and sizes and print them with your logo or design. Request a quote with your quantity and artwork using the form on this page, or upload your list in Excel, Word, PDF or a photo if you're ordering several colours or designs. Quotes come by email with Accept online and pay buttons.
Choose your bag
The right tote depends on how it will be used and the impression you want to make:
- Cotton totes: light, natural and ideal for events and retail
- Canvas totes: heavier and sturdier for repeated use and merchandise
- Non-woven totes: practical and economical for large giveaways
- Long or short handles, with or without a gusset
- Natural, white, black and coloured fabrics where stock allows
Printing options
Cotton and canvas totes take DTF printing well for full-colour logos, illustrations and photos. Simple one-colour logos can also be done in vinyl, and very large runs can be quoted for screen printing. Most bags are printed on one side, but printing both sides doubles your visibility. Tell us the print size you want and we'll confirm it fits the bag.
Who orders tote bags
Conference organisers fill them with notebooks, pens and lanyards for delegates. Boutiques, bookshops and markets use them as reusable shopping bags. Schools and churches sell them at fundraisers. Brands and artists sell printed totes as merchandise. For smaller sports and school giveaways, drawstring bags are a handy alternative.
Artwork tips
Fabric bags have a slightly textured surface, so bold shapes and clear text print best. Send PDF, AI, EPS, SVG or a high-resolution PNG with a transparent background. You'll receive a digital proof showing the print size and position before production. Colours on fabric can look slightly different from your screen, especially on natural cotton.

Common questions
Which tote bag is the most durable?
Canvas totes are heavier and stronger, so they suit merchandise and bags people will carry for years. Cotton totes are lighter and work well for events and retail. Non-woven bags are practical for large giveaways.
Can you print on both sides?
Yes. Printing both sides doubles the visibility of your logo. Mention it on your quote request and include the artwork for each side, and we'll show both positions on your proof.
Can tote bags replace plastic shopping bags in my shop?
Many retailers use branded totes as reusable shopping bags or sell them at the counter. Tell us your expected monthly usage on the quote request and we'll suggest a suitable bag and quantity.
