Custom Nugget Boxes are folding paperboard cartons for chicken nuggets, tenders, and bite-size fried sides, custom-printed for QSRs and snack brands. The open-top fold lets staff scoop and serve in seconds while keeping the portion contained.
A reverse-tuck-end carton assembles quickly at the counter and holds a clean shape in the bag, so kids' meals and combo sides look sharp on arrival. Branded panels give a small side item real shelf presence, and a printed interior adds a surprise when the box opens. Reach for them on a value-meal nugget side or a game-day snack box.
