Deli containers are PP containers that carry olives, cheese, pickles and mezes on supermarket shelves and in takeaway without leaking. Dipack manufactures 150 and 200 cc soup bowls, 250, 500 and 1000 cc containers and a 500 cc deep model, and sells them wholesale direct from the manufacturer to supermarkets, delis and meze producers.
This page also covers the size table, the difference between soup bowls and rectangular containers, and the wholesale ordering process, so you can choose the right container for your shelf and takeaway needs in one go.
Deli container models and size table
The deli range has two body types: the round soup bowl and the rectangular container. The soup bowl suits soup, yogurt and single-serve mezes. Rectangular containers line up side by side on the shelf, so they take up less space in supermarket packing.
| Model | Volume | Dimensions (mm) | Pcs per sleeve / carton | Use |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Soup bowl | 150 cc | Ø100×32 | 100 / 2000 | Single-serve meze, sauce, yogurt |
| Soup bowl | 200 cc | Ø100×35 | 100 / 2000 | Soup portion, dip, clotted cream |
| Deli container | 250 cc | 144×105×30 | 100 / 2000 | Olives, sliced cheese, small mezes |
| Deli container | 500 cc | 200×105×35 | 100 / 1200 | Standard shelf pack |
| Deep deli container | 500 cc | 144×105×58 | 100 / 2000 | Pickles, brined products, wet mezes |
| Deli container | 1000 cc | 200×105×60 | 100 / 1200 | Family-size olives and cheese |
Each product page also lists carton dimensions, carton volume (m³) and cartons per truck, so you can plan storage and shipping before you order.
Soup bowl or rectangular deli container?
The round soup bowl is easy to eat from with a spoon, so businesses use it for soup, yogurt and dip portions. The rectangular container leaves no gaps on the shelf and offers a flat surface for labels. For takeaway, choose the soup bowl; for supermarket shelves, choose the rectangular container.
- Soup bowl: for example, soup, yogurt, cacik, dips and clotted cream.
- Rectangular container: on the other hand, olives, sliced cheese, pickles, hummus and meze packs.
- Deep container: more room for brine in pickled and liquid products.
Why PP deli containers?
Dipack makes its deli containers from food-safe polypropylene (PP). PP holds its shape with brined and acidic products and withstands freezer temperatures. The locking lid keeps the container leak-proof on the shelf, so pickle brine and olive oil do not run onto the shelf.
| Feature | Dipack PP deli container | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Material | Polypropylene (PP) | Suitable for acidic and salty products |
| Lid | Locking, leak-proof | Flat top surface for labels |
| Freezer | Suitable | Stocking mezes and ready meals |
| Microwave | Suitable | Reheating soups and wet dishes |
| Pieces per carton | 1200-2000 | For high-volume shelf turnover |
How to choose a deli container: 4 checkpoints
The wrong container means leaks and label problems on the shelf. Check the four points below before you order.
- Liquid content: choose the deep model for brined products and pickles, and the standard container for dry mezes.
- Labeling: the rectangular container suits lid-top labels; for body labels, consider the taller sides of the 1000 cc model.
- Portion: 150-250 cc suits single servings, 500 cc a shelf pack, and 1000 cc a family size.
- Storage space: cartons hold 1200-2000 pieces; plan your model mix around your warehouse shelving.
Who uses deli containers?
Supermarket deli counters and meze producers use deli containers the most, because the locking lid prevents leaks on the shelf and the clear body shows the product. Restaurants also choose the soup bowl for takeaway soup, and patisseries for clotted cream and yogurt portions.
- Supermarkets and delis: shelf packs of olives, cheese, pickles and mezes.
- Meze and ready-to-eat food producers: for example, filling hummus, cacik and haydari.
- Restaurants and cafes: takeaway soup, yogurt and dips.
