Hollywood, CA (EMWNews) August 14, 2008 — The Bag Ladies, a company that produces custom-printed shopping bags for businesses and Hollywood celebrities, announce their innovative, new line of earth-friendly bags. These bags include enviro-sacks which are 100% recycled brown kraft paper, reusable non woven totes, canvas and nylon bags and plastic bags made from 25% post consumer content.

Plastic Bags are Earth-Friendly

Plastic bags have been vilified lately, but contrary to popular opinion, plastic bags are extremely earth-friendly. They are 100% recyclable and lightweight, so there is much less fuel involved in transporting them. Also, plastic bags are good for American workers. Over 85% of plastic bags are made in the United States and this represents over 4,000 American jobs. The Bag Ladies have plastic bags that are totally biodegradable in land fills.

Bags for the Stars

The Bag Ladies, Sheryl Goldie and Linda Hollander, are Hollywood women who have been printing shopping bags since 1988. Their clients include entertainment industry giants such as Disney, CBS, Variety, Columbia Tri-Star, Universal Studios and Warner Brothers. They’ve even done promotional bags for Tom Cruise movies, Jerry Seinfeld and The Lion King, as well as Sears, Ocean Spray, Mattel, Yamaha and Nissan.

Branding on a Bag

According to Sheryl Goldie, co-owner of the Bag Ladies, “Business owners don’t realize the importance of advertising their logo on a bag. By placing a logo on a bag, you’re adding value to your brand. With Green Packaging, you’re telling your customers that you care about the environment.”

With the concern about the planet, now people keep and re-use their shopping bags even more. This gives companies more advertising value for their printed bags.

Trade Show Success

For trade show exhibitors, bags are also an important part of the company’s branding. Bags are walking billboards that create brand awareness and drive sales. Bags are the most popular and sought after and they attract traffic to the trade show booth booth. People just love collecting and re-using bags.

Bag Ladies Empowering Women

Sheryl Goldie and Linda Hollander are lifelong friends who met when they were 13 years old in junior high school. Since 1988, they have catered to the needs of small businesses. As a women-owned company, the Bag Ladies have empowered other women to reach their dreams through entrepreneurship. Linda Hollander, co-owner of the Bag Ladies, wrote the best-selling book, Bags to Riches: 7 Success Secrets for Women in Business and is known as the “Wealthy Bag Lady”.
