Little Lato
How Little Lato and Bonson Created the Perfect Packaging Match
Bonson Packaging is passionate about helping our customers find packaging solutions that don’t just look good but work hard. When boutique gelato brand Little Lato needed a more durable, functional, and sustainable packaging solution, our team was ready to help them make it happen.
Introducing the 5L “Hi Top” Scoop, featuring a specially designed raised lid that allows plenty of room for the gelato’s signature “flair”; those eye-catching, flavourful toppings that make each tub truly unique.
The Challenge: Durability Meets Design
For Little Lato, packaging isn’t just a container, it’s an extension of their brand. Their gelato products travel far and wide, and they needed a raised-lid design that could withstand transit without cracking or breaking, while still looking premium on arrival.
“Bonson had a solution to our problem. We needed a raised lid that had the durability to last in transit without breaking. The product we received was better than any we had seen in the market, making it an easy decision to partner with Bonson Packaging.” says Hannah Engelsman, Founder, Little Lato
The Solution: A Custom Packaging Collaboration
Our packaging experts worked closely with Little Lato to develop a custom container and lid combination that delivered both strength and style. Every detail, from material choice to fit and finish, was designed to protect the gelato’s quality and presentation throughout its journey.
The Impact: Better Experience, Lower Costs
By switching to Bonson’s packaging solution, Little Lato eliminated product damage in transit. That meant a significant reduction in lost stock, cost savings from remaking or resending orders, and far fewer headaches overall.
“In addition to no damages, that means not losing product due to damage, not having to remake and resend product to our customers. Overall, it has reduced costs and reduced headaches!”
Prioritising Sustainability is a Win-Win
Sustainability is at the heart of Little Lato’s values, just as it is for Bonson, and choosing kerbside recyclable packaging was a key part of their packaging choice. Our recyclable polypropylene packaging offers the durability they need, whilst aligning with their environmental goals.
“Having a kerbside recyclable product is a big win for us. Getting to combine quality and durability alongside sustainability is a win-win for us!”
Smooth Operations and Reliable Support
Beyond the packaging itself, the partnership between Bonson and Little Lato extends to logistics and service. Our team helps manage stock levels and ensures timely delivery, so their operations can run smoothly.
“Bonson has been incredibly helpful in terms of managing stock levels and ensuring quick and easy ordering and delivery. They will work with us and do what they can to make sure our needs are met.”
A Partnership Built on Trust
Little Lato describes working with Bonson as seamless and collaborative, like having an extension of their own team.
“Working with Bonson has been so easy and has been treated like they are an extension of our own business. This has made the process very simple, and they are always available to provide support if needed.”
Creating Memorable Customer Experiences
With reliable, sustainable packaging now in place, Little Lato can focus on what they do best, creating unforgettable gelato experiences.
“Now that we have a packaging solution that works, we feel confident that we can easily manage our customers’ experience, putting more time into what we do best and less time dealing with issues that come from insufficient packaging.”
