Ramadan and Eid: planning ice cream packaging for the busiest evenings
For many ice cream shops, Ramadan evenings and the days of Eid are among the busiest of the year. Families gather after iftar, guests visit each other with desserts, and take-home orders grow. When the rush comes, packaging must already be on the shelf. In this guide we share how to plan it calmly and use it to strengthen your brand.

Plan the stock before the season
Printed packaging is produced for your brand, so it cannot be bought from the shelf at the last minute. Look at your sales from the last season, list the items you used most and order them early enough to arrive before Ramadan starts. Lead time and minimum order information are always up to date on the product pages.
Take-home items usually run out first: half-kilo and one-kilo tubs, tub sleeves, bags and spoons. Keep an eye on them as the season approaches.
Take-home and visits
During Ramadan and Eid, customers often buy ice cream to take to family and friends. Foam tubs keep the ice cream cold on the way; clear PET tubs show the flavours when the guest opens the bag. A printed tub sleeve and a kraft bag with your logo make the package look like a gift.
Cone boxes hold several cones upright and are practical for families ordering together. Napkins and wet wipes in the bag are a small courtesy that guests appreciate.
Seasonal designs without losing your brand
Some shops add a seasonal greeting or pattern to stickers or sleeves for Ramadan and Eid while keeping the main logo the same. This keeps the brand recognisable and gives the season a special feeling.
You can try your logo on our products in 3D on the See your logo page and share the images with your designer before deciding.
